Our Ambiance

I walked up to the top of the stairs
And i looked around
I felt your breath on the back of my neck
And it shook my ground
You asked me simply
What do you want?
And i couldn't get off with a smile
And all the great questions and mysteries of the world
The truth lay there in your eyes
Cuz with you and me
The question you see
Is how do we prolong tonight?
I sat down at the foot of the bed
And i looked around
I felt my blood rush when you held me so tight
And i could feel us start to love
I asked you simply
Why'd you wanna go
A beautiful woman you are
And all the great pain and sadness of the world
Seem to take shape in your eyes
I said i'd hold you close all through the night
If it'll keep your hope alive
With you and me
The answer you see
To what i want is tonight

We try to sleep to the beat of chaos
Forgetting time
The birds swim in the pond as we watch
And the rippling tide
I carried you to nowhere and back
You know you laugh like a child
And all the great questions and mysteries of the world
Seem to take shape in your smile
I said i'd carry you on my back
If strength is what you lack
What was stripped from you
I caught a glimpse it's true
The innocence we share tonight
What was stripped from you
I caught a glimpse it's true
The innocence we share tonight
