before you are Lyrics

lover, never tire of me
my hands, my eyes, my worrying
looking at you you're all that i need
if i could be that for you
you know i'd be.
i believe in something sweet
in spite of things you've told me
planted all the seeds i had
underneath a tree
turned all the sad songs right off
just as i heard them start
youre like the night
i feared it before i loved it, love.
we flinch like this
when touches are soft
too light, don't lie
you know they are
if you want constant and ready for war
i will be ready for it
before you are.
i've forgotten before you
in spite of things you've told me
i planted all the seeds i had
underneath a tree
blanketed before it did get dark
when the shadows were small
you're like the night
i feared it before i loved it, love
you're like the night i feared.
