lyrics

I thought I heard your voice,
I knew I heard your tone
and so I asked, who's singing, who's sung?
Then I saw how my words, they stung

Don't get me wrong.
Don't get me wrong!
I was looking to break the ice,
well, you'd been melting it all along


Well if it takes sixty-four years
to melt the ice around this heart
I pray we're both around to feel
the heat from the flame you sparked

you've kindled a fire
do I inspire you, too?
I know you'd go there if that's where I am
please know I will walk there with you

Oh that I had wings like a dove
I would fly away and rest
I'd find shelter in you away from the storm
and together we'd build a nest

show me how to build a fire
show me how to heal a bone
show me how to hold desire until
we build a honeycomb home

well I been waiting, feels like seventy years
for the ice round this heart to melt
either I heard your voice, or I never did hear
I'll insist that was you I felt

I love what you do to me
I love everything that you do
G-d bless the living you
I love you

when will we do this right?
doubtless, tonight carry a song in your heart darling
and be prepared for our song to be bright,
love, be firm, for our song will be light

we sang so sweetly now
these many years ago
these were the moments I was satisfied
when we were singing soft and low

in an instant, trembling heartbeat oh
we were quavering gently and slow

Oh that I had wings like a dove
I would fly away and rest
I'd find shelter with you
away from the storm
and together we'd build a nest

I love what you do to me
I love everything you do
G-d bless the living you
I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you
