Lyrics
|
|
Is love so fragile...
|
and the heart so hollow
|
Shatter with words...
|
impossible to follow
|
You're saying I'm fragile...I try not to be
|
I search only...for something I can't see
|
|
I have my own life...and I am stronger
|
Than you know
|
But I carry this feeling
|
When you walked into my house
|
That you won't be walking out the door
|
Still I carry this feeling
|
When you walked into my house
|
That you won't be walking out the door
|
|
Lovers forever...face to face
|
My city or mountains
|
Stay with me stay
|
I need you to love me
|
I need you today
|
Give to me your leather...
|
Take from me...my lace
|
|
You in the moonlight
|
With your sleepy eyes
|
Could you ever love a man like me
|
And you were right
|
When I walked into your house
|
I knew I'd never want to leave
|
Sometimes I'm a strong man
|
Sometimes cold and scared
|
And sometimes I cry
|
But that time I saw you
|
I knew with you to light my nights
|
Somehow I'd get by
|
First time I saw you
|
I knew with you to light my nights
|
Somehow I would get by
|
|
Lovers forever...face to face
|
My city or mountains
|
Stay with me stay
|
I need you to love me
|
I need you today
|
Give to me your leather
|
Take from me...my lace
|
|
Lovers forever...face to face
|
My city or mountains...stay with me stay
|
I need you to love me...I need you to stay
|
Give to me your leather
|
Take from me...my lace
|
Take from me...my lace
|
Take from me...my lace
|
