Tell me you need me

And I will understand

Because Ive seen the desert drinking

From the rains open hand

Tell me you want me

And I will lay me down

We can melt like snow in the summer

And flow underground

Just dont tell me that you love me

Because Ill believe it like an answer to my prayers

And Ive been waiting for these words

On the thinnest of air

Its been a long time coming

Its been a long time coming

I tell you Im frightened

A crash of lightning in the air

Now youre changing like the weather

And Im caught unprepared

You see Ive been angry

Ive been all dammed up inside

And when the walls come down

Im gonna drown with the tide

Nothing can save me this time

Then you tell me that you love me

And I believe it like an answer to my prayers

Because Ive been waiting for these words

On the thinnest of air

Ive been dreaming of this moment so long

I almost dont care
