All Time Lovers

All Time Lovers:

Your heart was open to me
the air was hard to breathe
you whispered into my ear
"I need to hold you closely"

Your lips tickled my neck.
We laughed at everything.
I held everything back,
and then I laid there quietly.

I need you close, I need you now.
I'll never drift too far from where you are. 


I need you close, I need you now.
I'll never drift too far from where you are. 

We laid like tangled ivy
Out of sight from everyone.
You were frightened by me, 

And my past that haunted me. 

I stayed in shallow waters
Too scared go too deep.
Til the tide had pulled me under
And lost everything.

I need you close, I need you now.
I'll never drift too far from where you are.



I need you close, I need you now.
I'll never drift too far from where you are.


We think we know the answers 
That keep us safe from fear.
Do we really want to hear the answers 

We fought so hard to hide.

I need you close, I need you now.
I'll never drift too far from where you are.


I need your heart, I want your heart
Please take my hand and don't let go.

Don't let go. Don't lose heart. Don't let me drift too far.

The Seasons Changed

Send your words from across this ocean. 
Cause I'm not the same as when you left. 
Broken hearted, empty, you wasted the morning.
I wasted trying. I wasted your time.

And then we watched the waves come and wash away
Everything We left unguarded. Everything We held so dear.


My love is buried deep within the sand

I must find it. I must try.  
The clouds pass fast, as time moves slowly, and winter breathes its deadly freeze again.

And then I watched the waves come and wash away
Everything I left unguarded. Everything I held so dear.

I waited for the warmth of spring
I thought I'd find it, I thought of death
I felt your warmth come upon me
And you spoke softly and I screamed loudly
"I always loved you more than I let you believe"
