Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Last night, I tried to keep my wants aligned
With your desire to dream with open eyes
The best gift you gave me was all your love
I gave you mine and I asked, "Is it enough?"
[Chorus]
Will we ever know
All of what's contained inside?
Split it into equal parts
Of different size
Take my heart instead
It belongs to you and me
Every time it skips a beat
Words go unsaid
[Verse 2]
The sound of whistling kettles and clanking spoons
Our voices resonate through adjacent rooms
Your laughter masks the clamor of slamming doors
The beat heard from the bedroom on twos and fours
[Chorus]
Will we ever know
All of what's contained inside?
Split it into equal parts
Of different size
Take my heart instead
It belongs to you and me
Every time it skips a beat
Words go unsaid
[Instrumental]
Take my heart instead
Take my heart instead
Take my heart instead
Take my heart instead
Take my heart instead
Take my heart instead
Take my heart instead
Take my heart instead
[Chorus]
Will we ever know
All of what's been cast inside?
Split it into equal parts
Of different size
Take my heart instead
It belongs to you and me
Every time it skips a beat
Words go unsaid
