Sweet nothings

That's what they say

But nothing

Explains why my heart feels this way 

Under the yellow lights 

Into the dark of town 

The look in your eyes spins me round n round 

While Time is racing 

And Fate is wasted 

Maybe all we will ever have is this 

 

[chorus]

So while your eyes are closed 

And you’re next to me

I'll pull you close and whisper sweet nothings

My heart is whole and yet its shattering 

Knowing this is all we’ll ever be 

 

If love is sweet 

Why am I bitter? 

If love is pure

Why do I feel like a sinner? 

A mind of fantasies 

Leading on a fragile heart 

Kind eyes and smiles 

Just the start of the spark

My phantom kisses 

Comforting wishes 

Just let me hold on to whatever this is 

 

[chorus]

So while your eyes are closed 

And you’re next to me

I'll pull you close and whisper sweet nothings

My heart is whole and yet its shattering 

Knowing this is all we’ll ever be 

 

It hurts so good. And it feels so bad

I’ll chain up Time to make these moments last 

I'll pull you close and whisper everything 

While your eyes are closed 

My hopeless tears unseen 

 

If this is it

If this is all we have 

I’d still thank Fate 

For placing you in my path
