The perfect words never crossed my mind,
cause' there was nothing in there but you
I felt every ounce of me screaming out
But the sound was trapped deep in me

All I wanted just spin right past me,
While I was rooted fast to the earth
I could be stuck here for a thousand years,
Without your arms to drag me out

There you are standing right in front of me,
All this here falls away to leave me naked
Hold me close cause' I need you to guide me to safety

No, I won't wait forever

In the confusion and the aftermath,
You are my signal fire
The only resolution and the only joy,
Is the faint spark of forgiveness in your eyes

There you are standing right in front of me,

All this here falls away to leave me naked

Hold me close cause' I need you to guide me to safety

No, I won't wait forever
No, I won't wait forever
