lyrics

You've got eyes like the autumn that can see right through me
I feel your presence in my soul
As the light that's your gaze permeates the dark empty in me
Leaving my cup half full

You have hands that are delicate with no blood on them
As pure as the fresh-fallen snow
How I long to hold onto those hands with a promise
That I'll never ever let go

Oh no, I'll never ever let go, oh no

You've got two separate peaces to you like a quickening pace in the river that leads to the fall
There I leap off the edge to pursue this new love like a blanket to cover my all

Though it's scary you swear that you'll always be there, like a sparrow you sing in my ear
"Lover, lose all your doubt for you've found all you need in me, and you have nothing to fear"

You've got everything going for you, but you picked me amongst all the suitors who wish for your hand
Though they are much more qualified, you reassure me that their advances you'll withstand

I was shaky at first 'til you opened your heart and confessed to me you were immersed
I was reading your diary, shocked to discover you'd written the exact same verse
