adore

from the first day i was all yours
you were windswept, braving the storm
felt my heartbeat pounding at the walls
wish i'd known then just how hard i'd fall
you tell me everything's all right
but you don't know a thing about what's wrong tonight
how can i tell you everything i feel
and keep you here?
i adore you
more than you will ever know
i adore you
and i would love you
if you ever asked me to
i adore you
i dream about the little moments
when our eyes meet in perfect focus
you tell me everything's all right
but you don't know a thing about what's wrong tonight
i'll never tell you all the things i feel
you'll never hear
that i adore you
more than you will ever know
i adore you
and i would love you
if you ever asked me to
i adore you
how can you tell me everything's all right
when you don't know a thing about what's wrong tonight?
these words are building up, but i don't want to scare you
how can you tell me everything's all right
when you don't know a thing about what's wrong tonight?
these words are building up, i've got something to tell you
i adore you
more than you will ever know
i adore you
and i would love you
if you ever asked me to
i adore you

echoes
03:49
|
|||
when i close my eyes i dream of a forever
but i know that fate won't pull us together
i'd kill to leave behind the echoes of your voice in my head
you follow me down every street, i just want to forget
when you look at me, what do you see
when you hear my name, what do you feel
does something shift beneath your skin
does something happen within
do i bring you to your knees
do you see me when you dream
i would kill for your touch
but you can't call this love
you're far away, but i feel like i'm tethered
to cut myself free wouldn't be any better
i'd kill to leave behind the echoes of your voice in my head
you follow me down every street, i just want to forget
when you look at me, what do you see
when you hear my name, what do you feel
does something shift beneath your skin
does something happen within
do i bring you to your knees
do you see me when you dream
i would kill for your touch
but you can't call this love
these echoes of us won't disappear
these echoes of us won't disappear
these echoes of us won't disappear
when you look at me, what do you see
when you hear my name, what do you feel
does something shift beneath your skin
does something happen within
do i bring you to your knees
do you see me when you dream
i would kill for your touch
but you can't call this love

signs
04:09
|
|||
my eyes never leave you when you're in the room
my pulse never slows when i'm thinking of you
when my gaze meets yours, it's like i've never seen someone so alive
the signs are there if you want to see them
the signs are there, just open your eyes
(the fire never dies
the fire never dies)
i search for your face across a crowded room
you don't look for me like i look for you
when you're with someone else, it's like i never knew i've deluded myself
the signs i seek are falsifications
the signs i seek are nowhere in sight
(the fire never dies
the fire never dies)

heels
04:27
|
|||
you light up the room, i melt in your hands
you're lost in the crowd, i don't stand a chance
you're all over me when i close my eyes
but flick on the lights, i'm alone every time
you would be fine if you left me behind
it's me here clinging to your heels
the sight of your name, i lose place and time
but you don't feel me like i feel you
i never cross your mind
you would be fine if you left me behind
it's me here clinging to your heels

heights
04:13
|
|||
there's a time for holding on
and there's a time for letting go
there's a time to fall in love
and there's a time to cut the rope
i'm more delicate than i realized
and i've fallen from such great heights
no more love between us here
no more heat, we've both gone cold
did it all just disappear
is it out of our control
i'm more delicate than i realized
and i've fallen from such great heights
when do we realize
the people we used to be died
when will we come to find
our bodies in different lights

cold winters
04:29
|
|||
i won't trouble you with these thoughts
never tell you how hard i fought
to leave you behind me, to find silver linings
i miss you more than i should
my devotion misunderstood
the longest season, i drown in these feelings
freeze of the winter numbing my fingers
dreaming of your eyes, how they would linger
wishing you knew all the things i let fester
in these cold winters
come a bit closer and i will whisper
everything i have held back and resisted
i would give so much to see your eyes flicker
in this cold winter
these long dark sleepless nights
these cold feelings calcify
you live on in my mind
i remember, i immortalize
(these are the cold winters
when we drown in shivers
these are the cold winters)
i have tried my best to move on
i am hopeless, i have withdrawn
there's no way to fight it, the stars aren't aligning
i wish i told you what i felt for you
before you moved on and left me behind you
i wish you knew all the things i let fester
in this cold winter
come a bit closer and i will whisper
everything i have held back and resisted
i fell so hard when your evening eyes flickered
in our cold winter
these long dark sleepless nights
these cold feelings calcify
you live on in my mind
i remember, i immortalize
(these are the cold winters
when we drown in shivers
these are the cold winters)
see you in every photograph
hear you in every wild laugh
i want all the careless days back
i'm doing my best to let go
i'm doing my best to let go
i'm doing my best to let go

every thread
04:16
|
|||
never alone, never need company
you follow me, always at my heels
you're always here when i fall asleep
and when i wake, your ghost is next to me
when the night comes around and i sink into dreams
every thread that has bound us is released
(you took over my life, but i've still got these nights
alive in my memories, but i've still got my dreams)
mosaic these fragments of us, keep our memories safe
i go through the days, wait for your face to fade
when the night comes around and i sink into dreams
every thread that has bound us is released
with time and with distance, i start to heal
no longer threaded together, i feel so free
(when the light falls away, i'm in another place
further from you with every breath i take)
