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.
