Lyrics

he asked me if I wanted
to live with him 8 years or so
said it was the longest time he could imagine
and he wanted me for an eternity

and I wanted to say yes
as he pressed me with his body
but the memory of someone else
held me back

so we made love in the meantime
breathing the mystery
and I lived on his patience
and he held on

then my poor heart betrayed us
and I broke him with my pain
he had to stop, stop comin' around
talked about new girlfriends

but none of them seemed to keep him
from comin' back to me
he said something happened when he held me
he wanted to feel it

so we made love in the meantime
breathing the mystery
and I lived on his patience
and he held on

well I half myself back then
it took me years to know my heart
and when I realized what a fool I'd been
I tried so hard to find him

but I never saw him again
but I still see his searching eyes
and I think I know now what he knew then
and I miss him

yeah we made love in the meantime
breathing the mystery
I lived on his patience
and he held on

yeah we made love in the meantime
breathing the mystery
and I lived on his patience
holdin' on, I'm holdin' on
