One foot onto the ice
|
I hold my breath
|
And try to believe
|
Can I look at you with different eyes?
|
Like the girl that I was, when I was 17
|
|
The fallen empires,
|
The shattered glass
|
The wicked echos of my past.
|
I've seen it all before, that's why I'm asking.
|
|
Will you still be here tomorrow
|
Or will you leave in the dead of the night?
|
So your waves don't crash around me,
|
I'm staying one step ahead of the tide.
|
Will you leave me lost in my shadows
|
Or will you pull me into your light?
|
Teach me how to be loved
|
Teach me how to be loved
|
|
I got caught up in a daze
|
Of the wine and roses
|
Such a sweet escape
|
But I watched it all slip away
|
Like running water from my hands
|
Raining on this picture land
|
|
The fallen empires,
|
The shattered glass
|
The wicked echos of my past.
|
I've seen it all before, that's why I'm asking.
|
|
Will you still be here tomorrow
|
Or will you leave in the dead of the night?
|
So your waves don't crash around me,
|
I'm staying one step ahead of the tide.
|
Will you leave me lost in my shadows
|
Or will you pull me into your light?
|
Teach me how to be loved
|
|
Can I give myself just one more second chance?
|
And put my trust in love,
|
Please don't hurt me.
|
If I make myself like a feather in you hand
|
And put my trust in love,
|
Please don't hurt me.
|
|
Will you still be here tomorrow
|
Or will you leave in the dead of the night?
|
So your waves don't crash around me,
|
I'm staying one step ahead of the tide.
|
Will you leave me lost in my shadows
|
Or will you pull me into your light?
|
Teach me how to be loved
|
