We sat silent in the car
Without a whisper but the wind
But all our thought were understood
And I couldn't find your face
I couldn't reach you from my seat
But it wouldn't matter if i could
It's empty now...
And I wonder if you've heard
I didn't mean to let this pass
My life is just one big regret
But it hasn't gone to waste
I've got my picture book on tape
And there's no way I could forget you now
Flooded in your holy water, I could hardly breathe
And it's left me at the bottom of the sea
I'd have to say I was blown away by every breath you took
And you left me like a leaf pressed in a book
On the airplane when we met
Who would have thought you'd be a threat?
I thought that I'd escaped your tricks
But in the evening playing cards
Was then you caught me off my guard
And it hit me like a load of bricks
Flooded in your holy water, I could hardly breathe
And it's left me at the bottom of the sea
You beckoned me closer, and I thought I'd take a look
And you left me like a leaf pressed in a book
Flooded in your holy water, I could hardly breathe
And it's left me at the bottom of the sea
It was the world that loved you, but it was me that you shook
And you left me like a leaf pressed in a book
Sunday morning in my bed
I remembered what you said
And I was nearly brought to tears
I don't think I could be more blunt
You're the woman that I want
The one I've waited for for years
Can't lose you now...
