Balancing, by bedazzled Subscribe to rss feed for bedazzled

I melt into the warmth of your touch,
And for the moment it all seems too much.
How am I supposed to walk over the depth of what you do,
How am I supposed to not fall in love with you?
You step so far into my pleading eyes,
In a realm of bare skin where you mesmerise.
You show me the lace of intimacy,
I don't just feel you outside when you're holding me.

I'm doing my best to keep it light,
But the feeling's getting hard to fight.
All I really know is I can't let you go,
How do I keep my heart out of this glow?
'Cause it's getting hard to say,
If I can continue just to play,
And if it's real what do you feel?
Or like me do you not even really know?

Walking over the lines,
Balancing on the wire stretched to you.
No I won't pay the fines,
For starting up a fire if you're feeling it too.
When will it be,
Okay to fall,
Okay to fall?

You breathe me into you, say all the right things,
I trust you enough to fold away my angel wings.
Yet the both of us have always said,
That this is to get no further than a place in our heads.
Hearts have been placed on guarded restriction,
But with time I'm feeling confliction.
Please tell me I'm allowed some small space to grow,
I don't know how to stop myself if your answer is no.

As long as forevers not planned in your mind,
As 'liking only' and staying safely blind.
Because the 'l' word is something we could deny,
But I don't want to feel it if I'm showing a lie.
I hope you're seeing what I can see,
If you're not we'll never cool the key,
Is this enough or is it too much?
We've got further to fall the higher we fly.

Avoiding the mines,
Balancing on the wire stretched to you.
I can see the signs,
But I'll keep stoking the fire if you're feeling it too.
When will there be,
No brick wall?
No brick wall?

How am I supposed to walk over the depth of what you do,
How am I supposed to not fall in love with you?
