[Verse 1]
I can picture every detail of your face
As I close my eyes
And in that moment
In that liberating moment
I can wrap you in my arms
Without fears that this will end
[Pre-Chorus]
But is it really just you and me?
And how deep still waters run
On the outside we seem ideal
But inside it's not much fun
[Chorus]
Like a new born I try to hold you
Try to protect you
Scroll through the hours
Scroll through the days and
Scroll the years and
Let's choose the best times
Of this bittersweet love
[Verse 2]
I can see where we should part
And yet still inside my head
Is this illusion?
When you run across the room
And lift me up amongst the stars
In your arms we fly away
I can picture every detail of your face
As I close my eyes
And in that moment
In that liberating moment
I can wrap you in my arms
Without fears that this will end
[Pre-Chorus]
But is it really just you and me?
And how deep still waters run
On the outside we seem ideal
But inside it's not much fun
[Chorus]
Like a new born I try to hold you
Try to protect you
Scroll through the hours
Scroll through the days and
Scroll the years and
Let's choose the best times
Of this bittersweet love
[Verse 2]
I can see where we should part
And yet still inside my head
Is this illusion?
When you run across the room
And lift me up amongst the stars
In your arms we fly away
