Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The night has fallen
And you have soaked your see through silken gown with tears
Your love was all in
And he mistook your come stay call for come quick, dear
You need me near, you need me near
[Verse 2]
After I have saved you and gathered all the pieces of your heart
That's when it starts, then you gain your confidence
And leave your innocence and vulnerability with me
[Verse 3]
After I have saved you and gathered all the pieces of your heart
That's when it starts, then you gain your confidence
And leave your innocence and vulnerability with me
[Verse 4]
Your tears were fallin'
And I came quick to comfort all your solemn fear
When you have fallen
I'm always there to pick you up and say come here, dear
I need you near, I need you near
[Verse 5]
After I have saved you and gathered all the pieces of your heart
That's when it starts, then you gain your confidence
And leave your innocence and vulnerability with me
[Verse 6]
After I have saved you and gathered all the pieces of your heart
That's when it starts, then you gain your confidence
And leave your innocence and vulnerability with me
You leave it all with me
You leave it all with me
