(V:1)

Between the wood and the hour glass,

Underneath the rain you soundly slept.

Born into my shaking hands,

I wanted to give you everything.

But I can't, not yet.

I don't have anything.

(V:2)


Through my touch you felt alive,
But it's your movement I'm captured in.


Your whispers dance like lullabies,
My clumsy ears won't hear them.


But I'll wait for you.
And I won't ask for anything.


(V:3)


So we end where we began,
I never minded the sound of that.


Each wave must wash the sand
And silence doesn't last for long.


So I'll stay for you.
'Cause I can't lose anything.
