lyrics

There’s something about the way
You’ve always loved me, baby
There’s something about the
Fires that have burned so tall

And when you'd call
Your voice was calm
But you were sounding strange to me
And when I needed you,
You never gave enough

If I had one more chance, I’d take it
If I had one more night, I wouldn’t let it go
If I had two more eyes to see you with,
I would watch you in your bright fluorescent glow

There’s not enough time for me to tell you how I feel now
No not enough words create the way you are to me
Wade in the water til your feet can’t reach the soft ground
Don’t float away, you are the anchor that I need

If there was anything that I could say,
I would have said it all by now
If there were two more hearts like ours in the world,
There’d still never be a love quite like ours

Cause what we have
It breaks my heart in a million different places
And what we have
It makes me strong so I am winning all these races against time
But I can’t find the words to describe
The pain and the love and
The way that you crush all the air from my lungs
I can’t get enough
No, no, no

If you left me with anything,
It’s the strength of a million bulletproof hearts
And if I lose my place again,
I will turn around and go back to the start
