lyrics

My hands are tied
On my mind
Is how long will it take for my walls to come down
You're all around me
Surrounded

I'm finding it hard to let go
To get my words right
Explain myself clear and to the point so don't fight
When all I can do
Is hope that you believe me
When I say I need you

I've lost my breath
I've stayed awake
The words were lost
You're winning me over
Over

My legs were weak
My eyes were blind
Clueless I was winning you over
Over

These days
I've found it in you
Everything I've wanted
And everything to lose

I'd be lying if I said
That I wasn't scared to death
Every time she walks in
My heart beats through my chest

I've lost my breath
I've stayed awake
The words were lost
You're winning me over
Over

My legs were weak
My eyes were blind
Clueless I was winning you over
Over

I've lost my breath
I've stayed awake
The words were lost
You're winning me over
Over

I've held my tongue for long enough
You need to know you're winning me over
Over

I'm finding out
Theres no time for doubt
When you're waiting for the one thing
The one thing you can't live without

I'm holding on
As tight as I can
As long as I am here I am yours

I've lost my breath
I've stayed awake
The words were lost
You're winning me over
Over

My legs were weak
My eyes were blind
Clueless I was winning you over
Over

I've lost my breath
I've stayed awake
The words were lost
You're winning me over
Over

I've held my tongue for long enough
You need to know you're winning me over
Over
