[Verse 1]

On that night under the staircase

Our arms drifting down

Your kiss made me a believer

Cleansed my sins somehow

I'll be what you need

I'll keep you inside my fortress

Hand you the keys

Leave you to roam these walls

But you tore down the keep

I returned to find ruins

You left all my love in the rubble with these walls


[Verse 2]

But in my head

I am still there, I can still feel you

Breathing slow

I've known this dream for a long time

In the air, suspended here

With thousands of words we've spoken

Can I soar up through the clouds?

Leave all of this behind?


[Verse 3]

But in my head

I am still there, I can still feel you

Breathing slow

I've known this dream for a long time

All alone

I feel your breath, I hear your whispers

Dark like storms

Telling me, "Dear, I'll never leave your mind"


[Verse 4]

And you've been there all along

Tugging me, pulling me down

Touching him, holding him close

You've made your home

And I see your face through his eyes

With every move of your hips

You're breaking my bones

While holding me hostage


[Bridge]

Could I still love you

Though my arms are breaking?

Could we still be alone?

Do I still know you?

Are you still my answer

To the question I've asked since I was born?
