deprive Lyrics

When you're looking at me

Your eyes tell the story

Of the time when the sun tumbled into the sea

Somehow embers remained

Flickering in the deep

Of bewitching and maddening

Blue green

I was doomed from the start

Knew I'd get swept away

If I swam in your waters too long

Yet I stayed

Now I'm treading and gasping for air

All too willingly

And I am getting scared

Oh I was not prepared

To gain and to have something to lose

Why should I deprive myself of you?

I brush all the flags aside

Unwilling to run or hide

When all of this feels so true

Why should I deprive myself of you?

Any day passed without you

Just doesn't feel right

Though you hold me at arm's length

But you hold on so tight

And the ways we've been leaning

We don't want to escape

This shared feeling

It just won't go away

It's growing everyday

And I am getting scared

Oh I was not prepared

To gain and to have something to lose

Why should I deprive myself of you?

I brush all the flags aside

Unwilling to run or hide

When all of this feels so true

Why should I deprive myself of you?

I don't want to

No

I don't want to

You don't want me to
