I can see you've got a lock on your heart
Guarding arteries making sure you'll never bleed
You won't let yourself fall
I don't blame you at all
Because I've got these hands wrapped up in scars
Telling me a thousand reasons why I should let you walk on by
When the desert cries out for rain
Does it always fall upon deaf ears?
I need you, I need you
I need you (x2)
I can see I won't ever tear down your walls
With anything less than a sustained army
You've already made up your mind
And I've wasted too much time
But I've got these plans inside my head
Giving me a thousand reasons why I should stop you in your tracks
When the desert cries out for rain
Does it always fall upon deaf ears?
I need you, I need you
I need you (x2)
Shaking at the knees, shaking at the knees
I try to act steady
But my actions are so petty
I can see you're scared, and I'm scared too
I'm not going anywhere without you. (x2)
And I promised myself I wouldn't let you walk by...
