Write your words on my heart
You know the ones that I mean
You saw the look on my face
Just like you see everything
I will hold very still
You will set in the type
I’ll be patient and watch
You’ll be quiet and write.
I have given this thought
Go ahead and protest
I suppose I would too
At hearing such a request
But it’s you that I need
Close as close as close can get
Let my heart be the page
Let your love be the pen.
I have tried and I’ve failed
Slept it off and tried again
In my dreams you return
with that thing that you said
And I can’t have your arms
Can’t feel the warmth of your breath
So let my heart be the page
Let your love be the pen
Write you words on my heart
They’re all of you I will get
