lyrics

All the times I’ve failed to follow through,
And I know this like the back of my hand,
That you take my breath away,
Every time you touch me.

Time and time again you’ve shown me,
That you know me better than I know myself.
I see who I am through your eyes.

I know now, that you have always been there,
Even when I’ve let you down.

All the times I’ve failed to follow through,
And I know this like the back of my hand,
That you take my breath away,
Every time you touch me.

Without you this longing in my heart grows stronger.
Without you I have this burning in my chest.

All the times I’ve failed to follow through,
And I know this like the back of my hand,
That you take my breath away,
Every time you touch me.

My heart beats for you,
Although my words don’t always show it,
And my actions don’t speak clearly.
I can’t stay that way.
I swear that I won’t stay this way.

In troubled times I reach out to you,
And it might feel like the ocean is crashing between us,
But do not fear, I’ll hold you close to me.

I am humbled by knowing you.
And you’ve known my heart all along.
