I paint you pictures all night long
And tell you tales of our every song
And let you know that you're the reason why I'm home
Or I could quote a page of poetry
Show you all you mean to me
And we'd go falling somewhere faster
Knowing we don't want to ever fall at all

Just don't think that this will be easy
Saying that you love me
Lying tongues are clumsy
And don't speak when one more word would kill me
Saying that you love me
Lying tongues are clumsy

But who am I to say
That every breath we take
Won't be another pointless kiss
We gave away

When what we love we burn

Is from the ashes we all yearn
To be the phoenix that rises up from the flames

And don't think that this will be easy
Saying that you love me
Lying tongues are clumsy
And don't speak
When one more word would kill me
Saying that you love me proves
Lying tongues are clumsy

Don't think that this will be easy
Saying that you love me
Lying tongues are clumsy
And don't speak when one more word would kill me
Saying that you love me
When lying tongues are clumsy

I paint you pictures all night long
And tell you tales how every song
And let you know that you're the reason why I'm home
