The Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I see you, you see me
How pleasant, this feeling
The moment you hold me
I missed you, I’m sorry
I’ve given what I have
I showed you I’m growing
The ashes fall slowly
As your voice consoles me
[Chorus]
As the hours pass
I will let you know
That I need to ask
Before I’m alone
How it feels to rest
On your patient lips
To eternal bliss
I’m so glad to know
As the hours pass
I will let you know
That I need to ask
Before I’m alone
How it feels to rest
On your patient lips
To eternal bliss
I’m so glad to know
[Verse 2]
We’re swaying to drum beats
In motion, I’m feeling
My patience controlling
The question, I won’t speak
We’re telling the stories
Our laughter, he knows me
We’re leaving, we’re talking
You’re closer, it’s calming
[Chorus]
As the hours pass
I will let you know
That I need to ask
Before I’m alone
How it feels to rest
On your patient lips
To eternal bliss
I’m so glad to know
As the hours pass
I will let you know
That I need to ask
Before I’m alone
How it feels to rest
On your patient lips
To eternal bliss
I’m so glad to know
[Bridge]
The night will hold us close, and the stars will guide us home
I’ve been waiting for this moment, we’re finally alone
I turn to ask the question, so anxious, my thoughts
Your lips were soft like winter, in your passion, I was lost
[Chorus]
As the hours pass
I will let you know
That I need to ask
Before I’m alone
How it feels to rest
On your patient lips
To eternal bliss
I’m so glad to know
As the hours pass
I will let you know
That I need to ask
Before I’m alone
How it feels to rest
On your patient lips
To eternal bliss
I’m so glad to know
As the hours pass
I will let you know
That I need to ask
Before I’m alone
How it feels to rest
On your patient lips
To eternal bliss
I’m so glad to know
As the hours pass
I will let you know
That I need to ask
Before I’m alone
How it feels to rest
On your patient lips
To eternal bliss
I’m so glad to know
