War Of Hearts


 

Come to me
In the night hours
I will wait for you
And I can't sleep
'Cause thoughts devour
Thoughts of you consume
I can't help but love you
Even though I try not to
I can't help but want you
I know that I'd die without you
Stay with me
A little longer
I will wait for you
Shadows creep
And want grows stronger
Deeper than the truth
I can't help but love you
Even though I try not to
I can't help but want you
I know that I'd die without you
I can't help but be wrong in the dark
'Cause I'm overcome in this war of hearts
I can't help but want oceans to part
'Cause I'm overcome in this war of hearts
I can't help but love you
Even though I try not to
I can't help but want you
I know that I'd die without you
I can't help but be wrong in the dark
'Cause I'm overcome in this war of hearts
I can't help but want oceans to part
'Cause I'm overcome in this war of hearts

My heart beats for you.
My body craves your touch.
My soul yearns to be infused
With yours, for two to become one.
I whisper your name and it
Escapes from my lips like a sacred song.
You fill the hours of my day
With thoughts of you.
And at night you call me to
Dance the dance of love.
The longing that I have for you is like a
Wild storm building on the horizon.
You stir my senses
And set my passion on fire.
I am breathless...

Is this all he has to do
To sway my opinion of him?
Touch me like this?
I am out of control.
I don't recognize these feelings
Coursing through my body.
The need to be wanted, to be needed.
To allow myself to be
Vulnerable to another.
That scares me worse than
Knowing who this man is
Or what he does.

I want you inside my mind,
Smothering my thoughts
And indulging in my dreams.
I want you inside my heart,
Dancing within my ventricles
And flowing through my affections.
I want you in places the most
Gifted surgeons would
Never gamble to dissect.
And I want you
All over me, all the time.

Say You're Mine


 When you choose to love 
Someone who is damaged, 
You take on the weight 
Of their past, their pain, their guilt. 
You must be strong, 
You must be patient. 
You can stop the bleeding 
And help them scar over 
But they will always, 
Always be a little broken. 
If you can handle that, 
If you can accept the 
Dents and cracks, 
If you can get them 
To trust you, 
You will never find a 
Better ally than one 
Who is damaged
Above all else, 
They know about survival..

You were built for me.
I denied it as long as I could,
But we were meant to be together.
You are the sea under my sky.
We're bound at the horizon.

Denying the connection is harder
To do with each passing day.
The telepathy you share cannot be ignored.
Full conversations are beginning to
Take place shifting your thoughts.
Memories of the past replay in your head.
Her words are slowly leaving
Imprints upon your heart.
Although you attempt to resist
The fate of your destiny,
It's becoming more apparent
That standing alongside her
Is the main reason for you
In this lifetime.

He took her by the wrists and 
Held her arms down to the bed.
He leaned over and kissed her, hard.
Then, looking her straight in the eye
He made one thing perfectly clear.
You Are Mine and he
Looked into her eyes and said 
Say You're Mine...

I've got something to tell you
I know you're gonna change your mind
When things go wrong, 
So wrong with you
It hurts me too.
I want you, baby, just to understand
I don't wanna be your boss, baby
I just wanna be your man
When things go wrong, 
So wrong with you
It hurts me too.
Now when you go home,
You don't have to get along
Come back to me, baby
Where I live that's where you belong
When things go wrong, 
So wrong with you
It hurts me too.
I love you baby, and you know that it's true
I wouldn't mistreat you, baby
Nothing in this world is like you
Yes, when things go wrong, 
So wrong with you
It hurts me too
So run here baby, put your little hands in mine
I've got something to tell you, baby
I know you're gonna change your mind
When things go wrong, 
So wrong with you
Don't you know, really, don't you
Know it hurts me too.
