Under My Skin

how'd you get so far under my skin

i can feel you there listening

i can hear you lingering in my riddles of love

oh babe, its been years and years 

since i started writing this song

so if your passing through

id say it wasn’t really about you

but if you stay’d with me longer than tonight

there’s no telling what we could write



i’ve been writing love poems to the stars

trying to spell, spell out my heart

never dream id hear them respond

oh but babe when you looked at me last night so fondly

I swear i could hear 

the song of a thousand lifetimes of fears

fall away to the fires i saw burning in your eyes

oh how long I've been chasing that sight



how'd you come to feel so much like home

like the place I've tried to find on my own

like the love I’ve been after with all these words

like the sound of the song in my heart 

I know in my heart you heard

and if your passing through

id say it wasn’t really about you

but if you'd stay with me longer than tonight

there's no telling what we could write


and if your passing through

id say it wasn’t really about you

if you'd stay with me longer than tonight

oh baby what could we write
