lyrics

So now you’re here again, everything is right.
The world forms in patterns.
And when you simply hold my hand I feel
More balanced than I have ever been before.

But our hands are always working.
Always building things apart.
And art is breath and breath is life, so when my life
Is made for yours, we find ourselves back at the start.

Chorus:
I wanna take you far away,
So that time will forget our names,
I wanna be with you, I wanna give you smiles
That linger on your face.
Close your eyes to the things we see,
Everything we don’t really need,
I wanna be with you, I wanna give you smiles
That linger on your face, oh…

And now you’re here again, everything is right.
The rain stops between us.
And when you pull me close, enfold me
In your arms, I know that there is nothing else.

And then we stay into the night,
With every gaze, losing the light
But you are bliss, and soon we miss the time
And hurry off alone. And I leave with you my home.

Chorus

And every time you go, I’m emptied
Like you’re the most important part of me.
I go away, you go away,
How far away, just one more day
I just want you here.
C’mon, let’s run away.
For just one more day.
For just one more day, oh.

Chorus

And every time you go, I’m emptied
Like you’re the most important part of me.
I go away, you go away,
How far away, just one more day
I just want you here.
C’mon, let’s run away.
For just one more day.
For just one more day, oh.

Chorus
