Lyrics
Now I close my heart
Wish you would hold me in your arms
Keep me safe, keep me warm
I don't know what it is about you
That makes me feel like I will lose my mind
It's not just that you're beautiful
You're fearless and you're kind
Now that night has come
all the days heat is gone
I can see clearly
I don't know, I just felt quiet
I should have tried to find my way back home
Yes I know there is a stillness
before the storm
Did you hear the seabirds calling
See them race across the sky as day begins
The sun has burned my wings
like Icarus I am falling
