I want to love you like a dreamer loves his dream
I want so badly just to know you’ll never lie down with another, neath her wings
I want to love you but I tremble at the thought

Cause I have seen what comes of delusion, and it’s no good

So I won’t shy from the darker spaces
No I’ll walk straight ahead, and not break
I’ll look love right in the eyes, and not waver…again

I wanna see you, through the layers, through the haze
I want to see how deep the river goes beneath your tender gaze, beneath your touch
I want to see you as you face your demons down

Cause I have seen what comes of delusion, and it’s no good

So I won’t shy from the darker spaces
No I’ll walk straight ahead, and not break
I’ll look love right in the eyes, and not waver, and..

I’ve lost my heart in pieces on sinking lover’s ships
Cast my line too many times, into that sea of regret

I want to know you in the light and in the dark
I want to know who you’ll be when the good things fall apart, and we are worn
I wanna know you’ll be the one to stand like stone

Cause I have seen what comes of delusion, and it’s no good

So I won’t shy from the darker spaces
No I’ll walk straight ahead, and not break
I’ll look love right in the eyes, and not waiver…again, again, again
No I won’t waver, oh no no no, I won’t waver…
