Tearing my walls down
So I can heal that much faster
This pounding on my soul
Happily ever disaster
She curls up beside you
My shadow just lays there
It cries while you sleep
A figment in your mind
A lingering burning desire
My life has been on hold
Without heat, without fire
Dreading you’ll come back
With news that you fell
Your heart is mistaken
She’s just under your spell
Laying here naked
But only for one love
Trembling deep inside
I know that you’re with me
Although far away
Time doesn’t change things
It just gets in the way
Your spirit is kinder
The kind that keeps peace
My heart you have stolen
Piece after piece
Don’t ever let go
The strength of our fire
It burns but goes slow
Ease into my heart
It’s delicate you know
Embrace my love gently
These feelings will grow
Endless is my love
Forever and complete
Put your hand on my heart
Listen to it beat
Happy in love now
Happy are you
Happily ever disaster
My dream has come true
