VERSE 1:
With lowered eyes you smile,
And lean into the night;
You part your lips and sigh,
Every kiss, a kiss of life.
The way you look tonight,
You make me feel so young--
The music in your mind
Echoes in my heart.
CHORUS 1:
It feels like such a lonely world sometimes,
The cold wind rushes through the streets at night,
But when I walk with you, your hand in mine,
The cold wind comes alive.
VERSE 2:
You brush aside your bangs
But they fall right back again,
Your heart is full of questions,
Mine is just the same.
Whispered through your cold hands,
Hidden under scars,
Shining in your dark eyes--
The beauty that you are.
CHORUS 2:
It feels like such a lonely world sometimes--
Answers that you feel you'll never find,
But when I talk with you, your hand in mine,
The silence comes alive.
VERSE 3:
Hours turn to seconds,
And seconds into dreams,
Dancing in the darkness,
Close to you, Ann-Mary.
Close enough to feel--
Beside each passing train--
Your heart beating in mine,
The world falling away.
CHORUS 3:
It feels like such a lonely world sometimes--
Time will wash away the good you find,
But when I'm close to you, your hand in mine,
love is outside time, love is outside time, love is outside time, love is outside.
