[Verse 1]
I can only say these things to you while you're sleeping
I hear the hum from the wires and the sounds of the morning creepin'
I lie awake and pretend you can hear me
[Verse 2]
And you tell me that you're scared
That you're turning into your mother
I feel myself turning into my father
We could lie to each other like they do and say we're so happy
It's easy when you're young and you still want it so badly
[Verse 3]
I turn over in bed and I feel my heart beating faster
I stare out the window and I think I might scream
[Verse 4]
And I can tell you that you're all I ever wanted, dear
I can utter every word that you ever hoped to hear
I shudder when I think that I might not be here forever, forever, forever
[Verse 5]
By the time that we were alone together at the station
You were so quiet like a child and you told me you want to be taken
I Just never thought of you as the kind of girl who would do that
And you suddenly seem like some faceless thing in my grasp
[Verse 6]
And I'd be lying if I said that I didn't find it exciting
Your eyes so wide, your face so warm and inviting
[Verse 7]
And I can tell you that you're all I've ever wanted, dear
I can utter every word you've ever hoped to hear
I shudder when I think that I might not be here forever, forever, forever
[Verse 8]
I can tell you that I'm always gonna love you
Like the virgin bride you were that night
But I'd be trying
Love is defying
[Verse 9]
And all I can think is that it must be a kind of rebellion
To arm these fears like soldiers and slay them
[Verse 10]
I can tell you that you're all I've ever wanted, dear
Through the din of your breathing while you're sleeping here
And you wake and you ask me
If I'm gonna be here forever, forever, forever
Your face so expressive and your eyes a lie
I wanna tell you I can seen you when you cry at night
But I'd be trying
Love is defying
Won't you stop crying?
