Aly Aleigha - Waltz of the Traitor Lyrics

Swept up in a rush
When your eye caught mine
It all happened so quickly
Yet it took a lifetime

You captured my heart
Like a prisoner of war
Though I fought in the frontlines Against you before

I've been grasping at light but it slips through my fingers
All your goodness evades me and selfishness lingers

But everything that I thought I knew
Fades like a shadow flees from the rising sun
I've realized I don't deserve you
But there's nothing I wouldn't trade just to be with you

Forbidden love you won't let me be
Though I've been a faithful servant for the enemy
I'm selfish, I know I'm weak in the fight
I was born to the darkness, yet I long for the light

You've been chasing me down, while I've chosen to roam
You won't rest until my wandering heart is home

I know it seems
Foolish to hang on the belief
That someone as glorious as you
Would care about someone like me
And yet the impossibility
Is realized in this mystery
That someone like you could love
Someone like me

I've been grasping at love but you're giving it freely
You have captured my heart, I'm at home when you hold me

Everything that I thought I knew
I surrender it over, only to be with you
This traitor has never been more free
'Cause there's nothing you wouldn't trade just to be with me
There's nothing you wouldn't trade just to be with me
