We see... what we want to see
But only a drop of what could be
Stop me if I'm going on...
I dream in stale complacency
And in other words ...
Tell me you're all right
Just a whisper and I dreamed you cry
But I survived, courageous here ...
And in other words ...on other worlds
And when my hands begin to bleed
Will you stay and comfort me?
I feel afraid I might be living. Yeah
And if I had to the ends of Time
Would I ever make you mine?
Just a whispered "yes" is all I need
Tasting you still on my tongue
Shaking conch shells one by one
And trails of peaceful inequities
Insincere flattering by other ones
In other words ...
And when these wounds upon my brow
Begin to seep the truth we found
Do you feel we need to keep giving?
And if I promised the world for you
I could make it all come true
With a whispered "yes" it's all I need
I don't know about tomorrow
I just know, I'll remember today...
And the way... you looked at me
If my hands begin to bleed
Will you stay and comfort me?
You looked at me
You looked at me
