Yours

(album: Straight On Till Morning - 1997)

You, with your and outstretched
finger on the key
this lock that You release
is opening but isn't free
and I hope that You can see
how it beats inside of me
instead of pushing fear aside
I want to run, I want to hide
I am vulnerably Yours
She, who is wanting me
Whose touch can make me cry
I can only understand
by never asking Her why
hear the contradictions fly
and as hard as I may try
every truth becomes a lie
in the ache of Her reply
I am passionately...
Yours
and the saddest eyes are
Yours
and the softest skin is
Yours
and the hope I borrow is
Yours
so won't you let me in, i'm Yours
all that I begin is Yours
every prize I win is Yours
at your feet again, i'm Yours
all I am is Yours
all I am is wanting You
i've fallen down and I can't seem to come to
if I shoud die before I wake
I commend my soul into this ache
up above the world so high
where the water tends to meet the sky
She's all i'm after by the toe
and I won't let go
and I wanted you to know
that if you reap what you would sew
I would take it blow by blow
all I am is...
Yours
and the saddest eyes are
Yours
and the softest skin is
Yours
and the hope I borrow is
Yours
so won't you let me in, i'm Yours
all that I begin is Yours
every prize I win is Yours
at your feet again, i'm Yours
all I am is Yours
Yours
