I stumbled into a winter's sleep
I fell asleep grinding my teeth
The night passed and the moon fell
I woke up with your heart on my sleeve
There's beauty in my mind
There's so much I want to say
You are what gives me life
I don't know why I fight for you this way
I'm bleeding your love
There's something going in my chest
You make me live again
A mixture of feelings, leaving unrest
Nothing can stop us
I feel enlightened
We just won't fail
I feel frightened
I feel like it's not enough
Those three words will never do
No matter how much I say it
I love you, I love you
Please don't tell me that I'm asleep
Because I don't want to know
If I can't have your heart
Then I don't want to go
Just trust in me, take my hands
And we'll run so far away
To where the lost boys live
And we'll go where lovers play

Three hours of stolen time
Your touch lingers

The Irony of Love
I am love. I am you. I am him. I am her.
I am the tears falling from her eyes.
I am the early morning sunrise.
