Wanting every part of you, like the air I breathe
Feelings I must relay
Wanting every part of you, you're everything I need
All the words I couldn't say
Always near, never far
Never the fleeting shooting star
Or enclosed by fences high
Sorry as a river bed dry
Wanting every part of you, forsaking all I know
In pockets of retreat
Wanting every part of you, places where you go
Heart of broken beats
Crazy as the northern lights
Holy as a month shut tight
The byline setting sun
Mending ways for days to come
Always trying, no deed undone
Mending ways for days
And wanting every part of you
Searching high and low for answers
But never do they yield
Only when I'm washed up
Will all be revealed?
Wanting every part of you, like the air I breathe
Feelings I must relay
Wanting every part of you, you're everything I need
All the words I couldn't say
Always near, never far
Never the fleeting shooting star
Or enclosed by fences high
Sorry as a river bed dry
Always trying, no deed undone
Mending ways for days
And wanting every part of you
And everything you do
