Staring across the room where you sit,
tangled in sheets mumbling half spoken words that I can't understand,
and I can't help but question your motives- is something here growing?
Or are we playing pretend?
The look in your eyes can't hide what you're feeling,
but your actions can. Chorus
And I, I wanna be your light.
The only one in your eyes.
The one that you're kissing goodnight.
And you? A million miles out of reach.
Don't you believe I could be whatever it is that you wanted,
If you wanted me? You do up your shirt with the bu*tons all wrong,
But to me it don't matter.
Fixing your hair while you're singing me songs
about happy ever afters.
My heart is melting in puddles, I swear it-
But I don't want it to end,
And as you go on I can't help but to think
that it should be me in those hands. (Chorus) Bridge
I wish you could see me standing here.
I wish every thought would just disappear and vanish.
But i'd stumble and fall if I planned it.
If you opened up your heart just a little bit,
I'd dig up the words I've been burying deep.
We both never sleep, baby.
Sing me to sleep. Chorus
Cause I, I wanna be your light.
The only one in your eyes.
The one that you're kissing goodnight.
And you? A million miles out of reach.
Don't you believe I could be whatever it is that you wanted,
if you wanted...
If you wanted... (don't you want this?)
if you wanted.... Wish you only wanted me.
