I'll wait at the gates, or is it a fortress?
I'm calling the blame, just let me own it.
There are things I thought I could rise above,
And all the things I thought I was better than,
And a coward might call it a conscience,
And a liar might call it the truth
Nothing could ever make me more frightened,
Than the thought of hurting you.
Pre-Chorus
Watching you float across the isle of sand,
Before the fire works began I close my eyes,
And wrap my arms around you.
Do you remember what I whispered love?
Do you remember what I whispered, love?
Chorus
This is how it's meant to be, this is where we're supposed to be.
I don't think anyone has ever loved anyone
The way I loved you.
Verse
So I wait at the gates, of your fortress.
I'm calling the blame, won't you let me hold it?
And all the things I thought I could rise above, I could not
and all the things I thought I was better than, I am not.
And a coward might call it a conscience,
And a liar might call it the truth
Nothing could ever make me more frightened,
Than the thought of hurting you, how could I hurt you?
Pre-Chorus
Watching you float across the isle of sand,
Before the fire works began I close my eyes,
And wrap my arms around you.
Do you remember what I whispered love?
Do you remember what I whispered, love?
Chorus
This is how it's meant to be, this is where we're supposed to be.
I don't think anyone has ever loved anyone
The way I loved you, The way I love you.
The way I love you.
This is how it's meant to be, this is where we're supposed to be.
I don't think anyone has ever loved anyone
The way I loved you, The way I love you.
The way I love you.
