Charlie Wilder - What I Thought Lyrics

As I watched you talk to me
And tell me riddles
I could see
That this was not
What I thought it'd be
And then you grabbed me by my side
Some weeks later
I thought I'd died
And gone to heaven
When you kissed me on the cheek
But it takes time
And it takes love
And we never had both at once
It takes time
And it takes love
And we never had both at once
And as I watched you walk away
Your body naked and glistening
From the water
I felt beauty in my lungs
And with our bodies intertwined
Our hearts were open
But misaligned
I started dreaming
And I slept right through the fire
Cause it takes time
And it takes love
And we never had both at once
It takes time
And it takes love
And we never had both at once
But I've got time
And I've got love
And I could never love you enough
But I will try
Until I'm spent
Because with you, I feel alive
And without you, I feel worthless
I can't survive
