This Is the Feeling (Exclusive Version)

lyrics

You needed somebody
To recognize the life left in your heart
And I needed somebody
To correct my misdirected brand-new start
So I thought this must be the way
And I thought this must place
This must be the feeling
Of a love that brings the light out of the dark

So I write to you
And lay right here in wait
For your heart to open your eyes and wake

And you shone just like the streetlights
All along the avenues of our hometown
And looked me in the eyes
To tell me how you dreamed the way I’d sound
And this must be the feeling
Of everything that taught us how to love
Falling into place
And praying that the love I give’s enough

Our world’s in your eyes and out of my mind
Watching the sky as our heads collide
Checking the time just to run from a dream
You feel my pulse for the space in between
Waiting by a window to the world we know
We sit and prepare for what time brings in tow
Cling to my arm and I’ll bring you sublime
Living a song one key at a time

So I write to you
And lay right here in wait
For your heart to open your eyes and wake

And you shone just like the streetlights
All along the avenues of our hometown
And looked me in the eyes
To tell me how you dreamed the way I’d sound
And this must be the feeling
Of everything that taught us how to love
Falling into place
And praying that the love I give’s enough

I’ll learn a new language that you’ll understand
And find all the words that can reach for your hand
I’ll show you what’s left for us lost in the dream
And bring you a world beyond what you’ve seen
Today what you see is the furthest from pain
Reaching the end of what’s left in my brain
Searching for words that can reach you in time
I find my eyes still set on the sky

So I write to you
And lay right here in wait
For your heart to open your mind and wake

And we shine just like the streetlights
All along the avenues of our hometown
You looked me in the eyes
To tell me how you dreamed the way I’d sound
And this must be the feeling
Of everything that taught us how to love
Falling into place
And knowing that the love I give’s enough

Daydreams slip your tired mind
And fall upon bright eyes
Maybe in due time I’ll find
The love you seal inside
On this final day of summer
Show me that we need no other
Standing over the bridge in wonder
Watching traffic passing under
Rest your head upon my shoulder
We’ll learn to forget before we get older
All I know is faith endures
So rest assured that I am yours

We’ll be alright
