Wide eyed, with a heart made full of fright
Your eyes follow like traces in the night
And the tightrope, that you wander everytime
You have been weighed, you have been found wanting

Been wondering for days how you felt me slip your mind
Leave behind your wanton ways
I wanna learn to love in kind
‘Cause you were all I ever longed for

The shelter, you better keep the wolf back from the door
He wanders ever closer every night
And how he waits, baying for blood
I promised you everything would be fine

Been wondering for days
How you felt me slip your mind
Leave behind your wanton ways
I wanna learn to love in kind
‘Cause you were all I ever longed for

Hold my gaze love, you know I want to let it go
We will stare down at the wonder of it all
And I will hold you in it
And I will hold you in it

Been wondering for days
How you felt me slip your mind
Leave behind your wanton ways
I wanna look you in the eye
‘Cause you were all I ever longed for

Been wondering for days
How you felt me slip your mind
Leave behind your wanton ways
I wanna learn to love in kind
‘Cause you were all I ever longed for

You never knew it but you had me from the start
I took a beating with the meeting of our hearts
I lit a cigarette and started up the car
You ever leave me, I will love you from afar

Cause I know
This is worth fighting for
My love,
What are we waiting on

When we’re together we can burn away the stars
And still we wonder why it has to be so hard

But I know
This is worth fighting for
My love,
What are we waiting on

We can cross this sea
I know sometimes it feels like it’s scary deep
But it’s just you and me
You said that we could dance if I would let you lead
I give it all for free
But loving you could cost me almost everything
Baby can’t you see I’m a mess

I’d give my life for you
I’d tear my soul apart
You’re so much more than you will ever know you are

Yeah I know this is worth fighting for
My love, what are we waiting on
My love, what are we waiting on
