[Verse 1]
You take my breath
My wind for your sailing ships
My skin for your fingertips
Is this all you want from me?

You take my songs
My voice for your sea of paintings
Shades in your color box
All my watercolors bleeding

[Chorus]
Is this all that you want from me?
Oh, something never leaves
It still lies waiting
Standing here in the open door
The heart you won't ask me for
Is breaking, breaking

[Verse 2]
You take my blues
My muse for your melodies
My rose for your memories
Safely pressed between the leaves

You take my tears
My moon for your dream landscapes
My soul for your dark escapes
Running alongside your shadow
[Chorus x 2]
Is this all that you want from me?
Oh, something never leaves
It still lies waiting
Standing here in the open door
The heart you won't ask me for
Is breaking, breaking
