I gathered a mountain An ocean of teardrops A castle of break-ups To hide myself in I’ve waited a lifetime For someone to find me For someone to reach me Somewhere to begin Now I’m a woman I can tell by the look in your eyes We’re no strangers I can tell by the way that you smile I’ve painted the sunsets The dawnings I’ve missed you The hours I’ve kissed you To keep my heart alive It’s the heat of your breathing The way you are whispering The urge of your wanting I can’t leave you behind Now I’m a woman I can tell by the look in your eyes We’re no strangers I can tell by the waves in the night You bring a little hope, bring a little love I don’t want to own you I don’t want to lead you I just want to love you In my own way
