I smile, might as well cut me ear to ear 

This creeping desperation, this pounding, 
This need to have you here 
Uncertainty sinking to the hollow of my chest 

And here I stand to give the world to you 
Stripped the flesh and blood of all I was 
My arms as wide as the void in your heart and mind 
When you stare blankly through me 

From the moment I set these eyes on you 
I knew the ground beneath me would cease to be the same old world 
I stepped out of the light that warmed my endless days and nights 
We carved our love out of these city streets and sidewalks 

I hold these moments like movies 
Snapshots of nights gone by 
Where I held you by my side 

You uttered "no regrets" 
When you looked me in the eyes 
Brought colour to this world 
Of black and white 
 [bad word] home son of sin [bad word] home  [bad word] home son of sin [bad word] home 

From the moment I set these eyes on you 
I knew the ground beneath me would cease to be the same old world 
I stepped out of the light that warmed my endless days and nights 
We carved our love out of these city streets and sidewalks 

You put the beat back in my heart 
Filled these lungs with endless life 
You changed the world around me 
Hand in hand we owned the night 
You put the beat back in my heart 
Brought clarity to these two eyes 
You changed the world around me 

You put the beat back in my heart 
You changed the world around me
