[Verse 1]
Shut the Cdoor turn the lights off
I wanna be wGith you
I wanna feel your love
I wanna lay Ambeside you
I cannot hide this even though I tFry
Heartbeats Charder
Time escapes me
Trembling Ghands touch skin
It makes this hardAmer
And the tears stream down my fFace
AmIf we could oGnly have this liCfe for one more dFay
AmIf we could oGnly turn back tFime
[Chorus]
You know I'll Cbe
Your life, your voice your reason to Gbe
My love, my heart
Is breathing for Amthis
Moment in time
I'll find the words to sFay
Before you leave me today
[Verse]
Close the Cdoor
Throw the key
Don't wanna be rGeminded
Don't wanna be seen
Don't wanna be Amwithout you
My judgement is clouded
Like tonight's sFky
Hands Care Silent
Voice is numb
Try to scream Gout my lungs
But it makes this hardAmer
And the tears stream down my fFace
AmIf we could oGnly have this lCife for one more dFay
AmIf we could oGnly turn back tFime
[Chorus]
You know I'll Cbe
Your life, your voice, your reason to Gbe
My love, my heart
Is breathing for Amthis
Moment in time
I'll find the words to sFay
Before you leave me today
[Verse]
AmFlashing lights in mGy mind
Going back to the Ctime
Playing games in the strFeet
Kicking balls at my feeAmt
There's a numb in my Gtoes
Standing close to the eCdge
There's a pile of my clothes at the Fend of your Ambed
As I feel myself fGall
Make a joke of it aFll
[Chorus]
You know I'll Cbe
Your life, your voice your reason to Gbe
My love, my heart
Is breathing for tAmhis
Moment in time
I'll find the words to sFay
Before you leave me today
[Chorus]
You know I'll Cbe
Your life, your voice your reason to Gbe
My love, my heart
Is breathing for Amthis
Moment in time
I'll find the words to sFay
Before you leave me today
