Your heart beats hard
Like the pounding of the sparrow
On the window that faces the yard
And you are far but not that far
I can feel you push your fingers
Through the fabric of all of my thoughts
And I thought I saw a falling star
Go flying past the treeline
And start a fire in my backyard
And I let you see the part of me
They call it understanding
They call it vulnerability
And the voice rang, ooh
Says, "I will not harm you
I will not alarm you"
And then I tried to get you on the line
But the busy tones were blaring
And there was someone from the other side
And you are heat, you are serenity
There's a million ways to f*ck with fate
To justify what you need
And your voice rang, ooh
Says, "I will not harm you
I will not alarm you"
And then that voice rang, ooh
I will not delay you
I want to obey you
And then that voice rang, ooh
I will not deceive you
I want to believe you
And then that voice rang, ooh
Says, "I will not harm you
I will not alarm you"
