The perfect words never crossed my mind
'Cause there was nothin' in there but you
I felt every ounce of me
Screaming out
But the sound was trapped
Deep in me
All I wanted just sped right past me
While I was rooted fast to the earth
I could be stuck here for a thousand years
Without your arms to drag me out
There you are, standing right in front of me
There you are, standing right in front of me
All this fear falls away to leave me naked
Hold me close
'Cause I need you to guide me to safety
No, I won't wait forever
No, I won't wait forever
In the confusion
And the aftermath
You are my signal fire
The only resolution
And the only joy
Is the faint spark of forgiveness in your eyes.
There you are, standing right in front of me
There you are, standing right in front of me
All this fear falls away to leave me naked
Hold me close
'Cause I need you to guide me to safety
There you are, standing right in front of me
There you are, standing right in front of me
All this fear falls away to leave me naked
Hold me close
'Cause I need you to guide me to safety
No, I won't wait forever
No, I won't wait forever
No, I won't wait forever
