And in the middle of the night I may watch you go There'll be no value in the strength Of walls that I have grown There'll be no comfort in the shade Of the shadows thrown But I'd be yours if you'd be mine
Stretch out my life And pick the seams out Take what you like But close my ears and eyes Watch me stumble over and over I had done wrong You built your tower But call me home And I will build a throne And wash my eyes out never again
But love the one you hold And I'll be your gold To have and to hold A lover of the light Skin too tight And eyes like marbles You spin me high So watch me as I glide Before I tumble homeward, homeward
I know I've tried I was not stable Flawed by pride I miss my sanguine eyes So hold my hands up-breathe in, breathe out But love the one you hold And I'll be your gold To have and to hold A lover of the light
And in the middle of the night I may watch you go There'll be no value in the strength Of walls that I have grown There'll be no comfort in the shade Of the shadows thrown You may not trust the promises Of the change I'll show But I'd be yours if you'd be mine
But love the one you hold And I'll be your gold To have and to hold A lover of the light But love the one you hold And I'll be your gold To have and to hold A lover of the light
