[Verse 1]

How long, how long 'til I'm no longer a shadow?

â??Cause I've been thinking I'd so love to feel again.

Silence; I screamed her name,

And wondered why you never came.

I wear my...

I wear my curse you wear my cure (I feel destined).

I never thought I'd be this way (for disaster),

Without you I'd just fade away.



[Chorus]

Please see in me what I can't see,

I'm begging, please,

Won't you be the light I need so desperately?



[Verse 2]

My heart has habits of silhouetting all my sense,

I get your worth, you get my...

You get my worst (I feel destined)!

I never thought I'd be this way (for disaster),

Without you I'd just fade away.

 

[Chorus]

Please see in me what I can't see,

I'm begging, please,

Won't you be the light I need so desperately?

I look for love in everybody else,

â??Cause I tried but I can't love myself.

Please see in me what I can't see,

I'm begging.



[Hook]

Hold me close in winter's weather,

I'm too weak to pull myself together.

Hold me close (hold me close) in winter's weather (winter's weather),

I'm too weak to pull myself together.



[Bridge]

I've tried so hard to grow in a place without your warmth,

Now there's nowhere left for me unless it's safe between your arms,

Safe between your arms!



[Outro]

Please see in me what I can't see,

I'm begging, please,

Won't you be the light I need so desperately?

I look for love in everybody else,

â??Cause I tried but I can't love myself.

Please see in me what I can't see,

I'm begging!
