You almost turned inside out
Found you down by the boats
Fell asleep in my arms
Under northern lights that danced like ghosts
If you can't contain yourself, my dear
Just try, just try, your time is near
Like the summer's last day
A coming chill in the air
Before the leaves turn to fire
As the sunlight plays in your hair
It seems like a thousand years
Since you last stayed the night
But something's changed inside you now
You're not afraid to come back and fight
When you can't contain yourself, my dear
Just try, just try, I'll hold you near
You can't contain yourself this time
Betrayed by something so sublime
I love your need
Your joy in grief
You bring relief
To me
