I cannot run: my feet don't seem to move,
I cannot hide...hide my face from you,
I cannot lie: this love that's sweeping me, I can't deny,
I have been good, I've given all I can,
I have been bad, I let you down again,
I have been holy, and I have been the one who cast the stone.
And I close my eyes; spaces open wide,
No barriers between us,
This love will never leave us, and I am breathing in.
I have been scared...scared you won't be there,
I have been brave...brave enough to dare to be walking in your shoes,
Still, I'm the one who shut the door on you, hey.
And I close my eyes; spaces open wide,
No barriers between us,
This love will never leave us, and I am breathing in, oh.
And I stand in awe, like many times before,
I can't seem to reach you, but you have come to reach me...and I am breathing in, hey,
And I lift my voice, rise above the noise,
I'm gliding into silence...a silence I can hide in, and I am breathing in.
