ten million years

[thowellcintron]

such a simple thing
i never feel this way
i have nightmares
i have dreams of you gone
there is something in you i want today
hide the bones away
beneath the yellow lines
you're scared of what you might lose
or what you might gain this time

i love you more than i should
i would wrap my heart
in bands of rosewood
love you more than i should
i would stay beside you here
ten million years

you see yourself in the mirror
yeah you see yourself at night
you see yourself in the gutter baby
you see yourself like a star shining bright

i love you more than i should
wrap my heart in bands of rosewood
love you more than i should
i would stay beside you here
ten million years

every minute
every hour
every second
you take me over
every night of every day
i wait
i take
i know
i take

but i love you more than i should
