How did I wake up to the breeze And not even feel the air? How did I let each day go by And not know it's there? Forcing the laughter just to hide The sound of a breaking heart Holding my breath to keep My world from falling apart Then you came along Opened my eyes Oh you woke me out of the dark
Now I can see again From the moment our eyes met I felt free standing by your side. I could feel the deepest part of you Touch the deepest part of me I can see again
How does the river know to run Into the open sea? I guess I knew deep in my heart That you'd come to me Holding on to each breath you take Every smile, every step of the way Just when I thought my world had crumbled You showed me the way Yes you came along, opened my eyes Oh you woke me out of the dark
When you hold me When you touch me You're my lover, friend
