"Never Laid A Hand On Your Heart" lyrics

"Never Laid A Hand On Your Heart"

I feel your heart against my hand tonight
I taste the colors of your skin
I see you tremble like a butterfly
Will you let me in? Will you let me in?

I drink the wine that lingers in your hair
I breath your need upon the wind
I run my fingers through you everywhere,
Ready to begin - ready to begin

But I never laid a hand on your heart
Even when it tore me apart
I only took what you gave from the start
Never promised more than a dream
Wonderful as it might have seemed
I always felt there was someone else
Beside us in the dark
So I never laid a hand on your heart

I hold your restless body in my arms
Until the fever leaves your skin
I feel your heart beat underneath my palms
And I let you in. As I let you in
There is no sorrow in this heart of mine
There is no future and no past
I only hope to hold the hands of time
Long as it can last. Long as it can last

'Cause I never laid a hand on your heart
Even when it tore me apart
I only took what you gave from the start
Never promised more than a dream
Wonderful as it might have seemed
I always felt there was someone else
Beside us in the dark
So I never laid a hand on your heart
On your heart
On your heart
