I'm slightly frightened 
By the feelings that I've heightened
And I shouldn't tell you 
And I should just keep it secret
Because I'm falling hard
I'm fading into where you are
And it must be my innocence
My lack of rural common sense

Watch me hang onto the spark
Take a breath and close my eyes
Though I'm in the dark
I chase your heart

I think I should have flown
Instead I knocked upon your door
You could have been my morning sun
And I your night moon
I think you think you could
Inhale my face instead of air
And I wanna scream your name
'Til I hear it everywhere

Watch me hang onto the spark
Take a breath and close my eyes
Though I'm in the dark
I chase your heart

And if you're figuring I wrote this song for you
Don't run away like the light from day
I want to be her

The strangest glances I remember
You were shooting through me
You try and show me shallow pools
But I've seen oceans
We can't expose it, oh
In case we both give up and fall
The conversations with my walls
I think are safer

Watch me hang onto the spark
Take a breath and close my eyes
Though I'm in the dark
I chase your heart
