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.
