I wish I was black and blue
I'd hide under your skin
You would think I'm just a bruise
But I would be so close to you
I'd make my way up through your veins
And once you fall asleep
I'd break my way into your heart
To know what keeps it beating
Darlin', lay your head and pull me close
But close ain't close enough
I wanna feel you from the inside
Darlin', lay your head and hold me close
Show me all the ropes
I wanna feel you from the inside
I'd build a ladder up into your brain
To see the world through your eyes
I'd learn all of the things you love
And everything that you despise
I'd try for days to make you cry
So I could ride on your tear
I'd ride that tear right down your cheek
Onto your lips and steal a kiss
Darlin', lay your head and pull me close
But close ain't close enough
I wanna feel you from the inside
Darlin', lay your head and hold me close
Show me all the ropes
I wanna feel you from the inside (the inside)
Oh, baby, I could love you if you let me
I try to hold it, but your heart's too heavy
Your eyes talk, but your words won't tell me
Won't tell me if you want me too
Oh, baby, I could love you if you let me
I know you're hurting, but your heart's not empty
Your eyes talk, but your words won't tell me
Won't tell me if you want me too
Oh, baby, I could love you if you let me
I try to hold it, but your heart's too heavy
Your eyes talk, but your words won't tell me
Won't tell me if you want me too
Oh, baby, I could love you if you let me
I know you're hurting, but your heart's not empty
Your eyes talk, but your heart's
