Craving touches.

Behind closed doors we made promises,

Our love was born, forever united.

Then one bright night,

Underneath neon lights.

We danced high as the sky,

Everything felt so right.

Over champagne confessions,

I swore to the heavens.

I’d give you the stars,

If I could reach that far.

I’d give you the moon and the sky and the sea,

But here, down on one knee,

All I can give you is me.

All I can give you is me.

You said go slow. I said, fuck no,

We aimed high from the get-go.

We got knocked down, blow by blow,

But one thing they didn’t know,

I was yours, I couldn’t let you go.

Behind closed doors we made promises,

Our love was born, forever united.

Over champagne confessions,

I swore to the heavens.

I’d give you the stars,

If I could reach that far.

I’d give you the moon and the sky and the sea,

But here, down on one knee,

All I can give you is me.

All I can give you is me.
