lyrics

There were times when I showed everything to you
And you did the same for me too
We could stay up all night or just lay in bed
Have fun with what was left unsaid
You may recall that night in our hotel room
What we did by the light of the pool
Hollywood never saw such a beautiful sight
There were no words for our delight

But now, we don’t go outside, we don’t laugh or sing
We don’t kiss or dance or do anything
And I want to feel your touch in the midnight air
Want to twist and turn like we just don’t care
Want to lose myself in your warm embrace
Want to wake up in the morning and see a smile on your face

I can tell you’ve stopped talking or listening to me
But that won’t change the way I see
What’s the point of staying together if we can’t be free?
What the hell are we supposed to be?

So you tell me right this second if we’ve got a shot
Cause I’m not afraid to give it all we’ve got
And I want to see your face when you come inside
Want to hear you talk with your tongue untied
Want to give you everything that you’ve dreamed of
Want to make you understand that you deserve to be loved

Want to sink myself in a flowered stream
Want to wake and think we’re still in a dream
Want to dive inside ‘til I reach the floor
Want to find myself standing on your shore
Want to paint your skin with the chlorine blue
Want to kiss your lips with the morning dew
Want to sail away by the Coral Sea
Want to float upstream with you floating right there with me
