Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Said it twice, now I know it good
When I looked into your eyes
For the first time I had seen
The better half of me
[Verse 2]
Now I say I never can
Be the bearer of bad news
'Cause my heart's purged all the blues
It's the simple things I see in you
[Verse 3]
It's a game of show and tell
With my hands laid bare as well
All the scars I can't propel
But you take them in yourself
[Verse 4]
Wishing time would hold my hands
But I realise I never could
Walk a world I never stood
Till you came to my rescue
[Chorus]
All my life, I waited to fill
My days with your hours
'Cause time in a world that's ours
Felt worth it, to plant all the flowers
'Cause all my days, I'd spend all alone when
Up and it left me, my patience had finally left me
By the grace of your heart, you said ready
[Verse 5]
Six words that'll never leave
'Cause I love you too, you know
Near the bells of the Eastern zone
Many miles away from home
[PreChorus]
In a wave, while I drift to sea
Feel the weightlessness of me
On a shoulder to which I lean
[Chorus]
All my life, I waited to fill
My days with your hours
'Cause time in a world that's ours
Felt worth it, to plant all the flowers
'Cause all my days, I'd spend all alone when
Up and it left me, my patience had finally left me
By the grace of your heart, you said ready
[Chorus]
'Cause all my life, I waited to fill
My days with your hours
'Cause time in a world that's ours
Felt worth it, to plant all the flowers
'Cause all my days, I'd spend all alone when
Up and it left me, my patience had finally left me
By the grace of your heart, you said ready
[Outro]
'Cause all my life, I waited to fill
My days with your hours
'Cause time in a world that's ours
Felt worth it, to plant all the flowers
'Cause all my days, I'd spend all alone when
Up and it left me, my patience had finally left me
By the grace of your heart, you said ready
