There's a yearning in the way you place your hand upon my chest
And the secret that my heart beat cannot hide
Our love flows like a river, rushing far away from us
To somewhere that exists only inside our minds
Why fake it why fake anything?
I know what I want I want you
I've been thinking of the foolish ways that we learn to hurt ourselves
And how we teach them to each other through the pain behind our eyes
And I'd ask God to forgive us but God cannot forgive itself
A forest burns around the church I am praying inside
Why fake it why fake anything?
I know what I want I want you
And at last the river flows around the world returns to us
Your hand still on my heartbeat
My tears are in your eyes
If we could only stay like this for one thousand eternities
If we could only have a moment of each other's time
Why fake it why fake anything?
I know what I want I want you
I know what I want
I know what I want
