[Verse 1] Here we are, laughing at the sea Baby, you and me Kissing like lovers long deprived ofhumantouch Whispering with twotongues Afraid of saying too much Why wouldI let you go?
[Verse 2] Here we are, burning down the sun Prisoners on the run Drowning our sorrows in another desperate embrace Pushing back anything that might get in our way Why would I let you go?
[Chorus] And in my dreams I have the strength To not keep love at an arm's length And in my dreams I see myself the way you do And in my dreams I understand The value of the love at hand And in my dreams I love you like I used to
[Verse 3] Here we are, stranded on a cloud The ocean's getting loud Aching for something to prolong this credulous view Asking the sunset for more crimson, violet, and blue Why would I let you go?
[Chorus] And in my dreams I have the strength To not keep love at an arm's length And in my dreams I see myself the way you do And in my dreams I understand The value of the love at hand And in my dreams I love you like I used to Why would I let your love run out on me
[Outro] Here we are, lit up by the moon Babe, I spoke too soon Taking for granted all the love I cared to devour Spurning a heart so pure 'cause I can't muster the power How could I let you go?
