I thought that this was supposed to feel good And if you were really mine I guess it would I didn't fall in love, 'cause it was the right thing to do
This woman that takes on the world And picks up your shirts Keeps it together somehow This same woman That melts with your touch Wants you to feel what

Somewhere between, what can and can't be seen I knelt in your spring, you dusted off my wings Your kiss upon my face feels like a brush with grace Baby
What if my heart had walked right past you? What if my eyes had never asked you? To come and take the chains that kept me weighted down If you never saved
