I can only say these things to you while you're sleeping.Through the hum from the wires, the sounds of the morning creeping.I lay awake pretending you can hear me hear me.You tell that you're scared of turning into your mother, I feel myself turning my father.We could lie to each other like they do and say we're still happy Guess it's easy when you're young cause you still want it so badly.And I feel my heart poundingAnd I think that I might screamI can tell you that you're all I ever wanted, dear I can utter every word you'd ever hope to hearI shudder when I think that I might not be here forever, forever, forever.At lengths we whisper like ghostsAnd you look so shaken You're so quiet like a child and you told me you'd wish you'd be taken.I never thought you'd be the kind of girl that who would say that. You suddenly look like some faceless thing in my grasp.With your eyes alight and your face aglowThis face of someone I don't know.I can tell you that you're all I ever wanted, dear I can utter every word you'd ever hope to hear.SongtexteI shudder when I think that I might not be here forever, forever, forever.(Instrumental)And all I could think is that it must be a kind of rebellion.To arm your fears like soldiers and slay them. I can tell you that you're all I ever wanted, dearThrough the dim of your breathing while you're sleeping here.You wake and ask me if I'm going to be here forever, forever, forever.Your face so twisted and your eyes alightI want to tell you I can change it when you cry at nightBut I'd be trying.Love is defying.
