I watch my world burn up in ashes I watch it slowly drown in mist As you become my silent weakness My contradiction, my breathless bliss
Give in, give in, give in, Into my arms of suffering Breathe in, breathe in, breathe in Let it within, feeling the sin
It’s only when you’re closer than the air I breathe That I cannot help myself, but to love you, And thousand miles between that separate Are only there to sail through, babe( X2)
I think of you, I dream of you Nevertheless it’s true, nevertheless it’s true I think of you, I dream of you Nevertheless it’s true, nevertheless it’s true Out of the blue, I even sing these things to you
Look at my hopes – they are in pieces I have allowed myself too much Let you become my silent weakness My misery, my softest touch
It’s only when you’re closer than the air I breathe That I cannot help myself, but to love you, And thousand miles between that separate Are only there to sail through, babe( X2)
