Anchoress - For a Soft Heart lyrics

rate me

(Chorus)

Don’t leave me dancin' with myself

You know how much I need you

So hold me closer, baby blue

(Verse)

The sun fell into the islands off the bay

And pulled the stars along behind, tied to his sleigh

It’s high tide, and the water laps our feet

All late summer nights should be spent on a beach

Weather permittin', we will neva have to leave

From where I’m sittin' you’re the brightest star I see

It’s in that minute, inches apart

I feel it spinnin', my beatin' heart

The air is tense, the lights are dark

The room is a powder keg and she is the spark

(Chorus)

Don’t leave me dancin' with myself

You know how much I need you

So hold me closer, baby blue

Don’t leave me dancin' with myself

You know how much I need you

So hold me closer, baby blue!

(Verse 2)

And in that time of calm, the seconds right before dawn

I grasp up at the sky, try to make this moment mine

Dear love, a toast to this night to all the stars in your eyes

To all nights yet to unfold to our love, to have and to hold
