[Verse 1]
Just about the time the shadows call
I undress my mind and dare you to follow
Paint a portrait of my mystery
Only close my eyes and you are here with me
[Pre-Chorus]
A nameless face to think I see
To sit and watch the waves with me until they're gone
A heart I'd swear I'd recognize is made out of
My own devices
Could I be wrong?
[Chorus]
The time that I've taken
I pray is not wasted
Have I already tasted my piece of one sweet love?
[Verse 2]
Sleepless nights you creep inside of me
Paint your shadows on the breath that we share
You take more than just my sanity
You take my reason not to care
[Pre-Chorus]
No ordinary wings I'll need
The sky itself will carry me back to you
The things I dream that I can do
I'd open up the moon for you
Just come down soon
[Chorus]
The time that I've taken
I pray is not wasted
Have I already tasted my piece of one sweet love?
Ready and waiting
For a heart worth the breaking
But I'd settle for an honest mistake in the name of one sweet love
[Bridge]
Savor the sorrow to soften the pain
Sip on the southern rain
As I do, I don't look don't touch don't do anything
But hope that there is a you
[Pre-Chorus]
The earth that is the space between
I'd banish it from under me, to get to you
Your unexpected love provides my solitary's
Suicide, oh I wish I knew
[Pre-Chorus]
The time that I've taken
I pray is not wasted
Have I already tasted my piece of one sweet love?
Ready and waiting
For a heart worth the breaking
But I'd settle for an honest mistake in the name of one sweet love
