lying next to you in the dark
i can feel your beating heart
you’ve been here beside me for the test of time
we both had our share of doubts
waded out those old storm clouds
boy, its times like these that i know why
lovers like you and me will never say die
tears say more than words explain
my yesterdays are all boxed up
and neatly put away, but every
now and then you come to mind
Since you’ve drawn out these lines
Are you protected from trying times
Man it takes a silly girl to lie
about the dreams she has
Lord it takes a lonely one
to wish that she had never dreamt at all
Oh Look now, there you go with hope again
But I’ll be sure your secrects safe with me
Oh you’re so sure
I’ll be leaving in the end
Treatin me like I’m already gone
but I’m not
I will stay where you are always
She’s got you wrapped up in her satin and lace
Tied around her little finger
She’s got you thinkin’ you could never escape
Don’t you know your heart’s in danger
There’s a devil in that angel face
If you could only see the love that you’re wasting
seventeen is just a test
yeah and i would recommend
that you live with no regrets
and even if it seems
like the world was crushing on you
you shouldnt let it hold you down
shouldnt hold you back
you are everything i want
cause you are everything i’m not
Just to see you smile
Id do anything
That you wanted me to
And all is said and done
Id never count the cost
Its worth all thats lost
Just to see you smile
When you said time was all you really needed
I walked away and let you have your space
Cuz leavin didnt hurt me near as badly
As the tears I saw rollin down your face
Our act of defiance
We keep this secret in our blood
No paper or letters
We pass just close enough to touch
We love in secret names
We hide within our veins
The things that keep us bound to one another
time grabs you by the wrist
directs you where to go
so make the best of this test
and dont ask why
its not a question
but a lesson learned in time
maybe you’re gonna be the one that saves me
she made you better than youd been before
And she told you bad things you wished you could change
In the lazy summer
She said No one is alone the way you are alone
And you held her looser than you would’ve if you ever couldve known
Some things tie your life together
With slender threads of things to treasure
Days like that should last and last and last
