lyrics

The simple things I’ve ever said
The only ones that made most sense
I need you,
Maybe I can’t leave you

I’ll take you in when you’ve gone too far
When you say nothing, I can hear you call
“El idioma, no es importante”

No, I won’t understate the truth
In more familiar words, it’s true
I guess that I won’t hold this back
I need you, I want you, I love you everyday

I’ll never lose you to an open sea
The river’s deep and the ocean sees
I’m blinded,
Slowly I’m reminded

I led you there without a touch
To a place where there’s no more memories…

No I won’t understate the truth
In more familiar words, it’s true
You left me here with no excuse
I need you, I want you, I love you anyways

Unto the road that leads into the night,
We walk a crowded mile
We're not alone, but lost in the silent words that bring me home
Not alone, but lost in your arms
Into the blinding light
Though I tire of sight
Every once in while
I know you’ll be there too
Open up your eyes
You’re the spaces in between the light
Where everything fades to view
As it’s rising up
You're the distant falling
Ocean’s calling
The waves come crashing on your shore
It comes without a warning
Forgive you in the morning,
Forgive you in the evening
I need you
I want you
I love you everyday
