Otherwise - Heroine Lyrics

The soft touch of skin and I open my eyes
Another morning dawning and I'm waking up high
She sleeps serenely under this peace on her face
She's so beautiful and I want to embrace it all

She'd have eyes like an angel given that angels exist
She gave that away to me the first time we kissed
Like a favourite song, a favourite book, a favourite year
She's a lifetime of music and I want to hear it all

You make me feel alive, (yeah) you let me in
Baby, you're my heroine
You get me so high by the look in your eye
Heroine

I'll get my fix around the end of the day
'Cause I know she'll be walking in all smiling and say
"Why don't we hide? Shut the world outside
Just you and me Babe"
And they don't need to know we're here at all

I swear that I'd seen this years before
Like the girl in the courtyard trying to keep her warm
I reckon we deserve it everyday more and more

You make me feel alive, (yeah) you let me in
Baby, you're my heroine
You get me so high by the look in your eye
Heroine
