Warm Body

Every time I close my eyes

I hear your voice and see your smile

Wish I could feel it spread through my lips

If you forget to think my name

I'll send it floating on a wave

Right into your hands

So you can trace it in the sand

If I can't swim, if I can't float

I'll build my love into a boat

And sail to you, dear

Instead I'm stuck here

All of my thoughts are stranded seaside

Yeah, I know it would be alright

If you were here

Lying warm, soft, and near

Just knowing how it feels fine

To close my eyes when I'm by your side

Feel your fingers laced within mine

Makes me feel in love again

But darlin' oh when I wake

Open sleepy eyes to your face

Feel so lonely think I might take off

Without a note again

So we fall back down

But everybody does

Just because we hold each other up

Don't mean that we're in love

But when I need you

And if you trust me, do you trust me?

You just might be the one for me tonight

So we go back into the verse

To tell the story of the curse

Of you and me, dear

My wicked words and your stained tears

I'm thinking if you see the stars

And think of lying in my arms

Well then I'm there

With my heart in my hands

If you need bread, well I would bake

I'm not a cook, I'm not a saint

But I would try it all

To see you smile so split

Could you imagine a place

Where fields of flowers made of space

And stars like your eyes

Shine both day and night

Just knowing how it feels fine

To close my eyes when I'm by your side

Feel your fingers laced within mine

Makes me feel in love again

But darlin' oh when I wake

Open sleepy eyes to your face

Feel so lonely think I might take off

Without a note again

So we fall back down

But everybody does

Just because we hold each other up

Don't mean that we're in love

But when I need you

And if you trust me, do you trust me?

You just might be the one for me tonight

And since I can't see your eyes

I'll use the moon up in the sky

To melt your heart, dear

To soothe your worries and your fears

And so as long as we're apart

We'll use the waves to send our hearts

Through wind and currents

Until you can come home again
