lyrics

One kiss deep
The idea of more is one the sea keeps
Cus I can’t bring myself, from my knees
To where we were before

Feel me now
send my pupils swimming
like only you know how
while we pretend that love has atrophied
While we count on fate to intervene

You know I know we,
Just can’t help
That feeling
In those moments when
No one could,
Could ask for more

Yes it’s fear
you’re the lighthouse so I must steer/keep clear
Less than forever, (is) nothing at all
So we won’t begin, won’t lose anymore

Still,
Sometimes,
The truth will get caught in your eyes
While they’re dancing, playing games with mine
But we know this beats hard goodbyes

It’s true,
Souls paw at hosts to share a view
We both know the worlds not built for two
But at least we’ll share
(the view)

You know I know we,
Just can’t help
That feeling
In those moments when
No one could,
Could ask for more
