Wait for Me

HIM:
I don't have a reason
I don't have an answer for my fear
it's pulling on my heart
I don't have you here.
HER:
Don't be scared to lose this
I'm not going anywhere, my dear
be steady with your heart
just know I need you near.
CHORUS:
I need you here with me.
Make me the one that you believe
will bring the quiet into all that's uncertain…
wait for me.
HIM:
Tryin' hard to keep you
Losing you is more than I can bear
and should we ever break
could I be repaired?
HER:
I don't need temptation
I don't want perfection anyway
But if you're gonna change
Please don't slip away.
CHORUS:
Still need you here with me.
Make me the one that you believe
will bring the quiet into all that's uncertain…
wait for me.
Yeah…Whoa…
TOGETHER:
Still need you here with me.
Make me the one that you believe
will bring the quiet into all that's uncertain
Still need you here with me.
Make me the one that you believe
will bring the quiet into all that's uncertain
… wait for me.

Perfect Melody
03:04

If I spent the day writing down the ways your love has stamped its shiny on my heart
I'd run out of time searching for a rhyme
cuz words can only go so far
there's so much more to who you are
so much more to what you mean to me
our love is just the perfect melody.
Ba da da dum…
I could never sing of every little thing
that makes me leave these chocolates at your door
They're overplayed cliches
faulty serenades, 'cause words are only black and white
I never get my thoughts quite right
but i could sing of you in every key...
our love is just the perfect melody
Could it really be? (oh you are everything I need)
and life is beautiful with you beside me (oh I'm done with all of these silly games)
Each and every day in perfect harmony
a simple song for you and me
Darling never change
sing to me every day
cuz words can only go so far
there's so much more to who you are
and I could sing of you in every key
This music sung in harmony
is sweeter than a symphony
our love is just the perfect melody.
Ba da da dum…

If I had another eye, I'd see the whole world
Two to keep me between the lines, as the road turned
One stayed on the setting sun, behind me
if I had the eyes to see.
Alone I keep a steady keel, my conscience
timing like an idle wheel, across the distance
ever wishing you were here
to give me grace
to fill the empty space.
Singing, oooooh…. x4
This old North Dakota blue is an ocean
Deeper than the fields we knew
and when I'm feeling very small and overcome
our song will guide me home
Singin', oooooh … x4
this wandering road
this wandering road.

For Now

I'm past believing there's more to what I see
I'm hardly breathing from the way you look at me
You could be just what I need.
CHORUS:
You make my heart stop, open up
we don't have to wait on love
I feel the pulse rush, live it up
fine without the weight of love
I might be head over heels but I'm standing my ground
say you're crazy for me but I won't stick around
make my heart stop, baby
you make my heart stop… for now.
I don't care how you make your money
I don't need to know your last name
conversations bore me honey
I'm guessing that you feel the same.
do you feel the same?
CHORUS:
You make my heart stop, open up
we don't have to wait on love
I feel the pulse rush, live it up
fine without the weight of love
I might be head over heels but I'm standing my ground
say you're crazy for me but I won't stick around
make my heart stop, baby
you make my heart stop… for now.
BRIDGE:
I won't be here for much too long
So hold me close before the moment's gone
CHORUS:
You make my heart stop, open up
we don't have to wait on love
I feel the pulse rush, live it up
fine without the weight of love
I might be head over heels but I'm standing my ground
say you're crazy for me but I won't stick around
I'm not playing the game, I'm just laying it down
make my heart stop, baby
you make my heart stop… for now.

Third of December, wrapped in a blanket
you sat by the window, studying silently
we drank our coffee, thought of the night gone by.
A page of your notebook, we laughed as I tried to decipher your writing
the axis was tilting, everything shifting
then I was falling.
Trying hard to hold it in
with worn-out pages that I lock myself in
I can't keep enough to feel complete
like water pouring through my fingers
Early evening, moonlight as soft as the song we were singing
counting our steps as we circled the square
everything faded away
This is the present, this is the rock that I keep in my pocket
my souvenir of this one perfect moment, do you remember?
I'm trying hard to hold it in
with worn-out pages that I lock myself in
I can't keep enough to feel complete
like water pouring through my fingers
like water pouring through my fingers.
This rock I keep in my pocket
This piece I hold.
