UNTIL I HAVE YOU
[verse 1]
You are where it all begins
A starry whisper on the solar winds
You alone control my breath
All I know is my soul shall never rest
[chorus]
Until I have you
I’m not alive unless I know you
My heart was made to hold you
I cannot rest until I have you
[verse 2]
Space and time will pass away
But in it’s exit our love will remain
And when I finally shed this skin
The everlasting romance will begin
[chorus]
When I have you
I’m not alive unless I know you
My heart was made to hold you
I cannot rest until I have you
[bridge]
Come and rescue me
Come and take me
Come and capture me
Come and rescue me
Come and take me
Come and enrapture me
[chorus]
Until I have you
I’m not alive unless I know you
My heart was made to hold you
I cannot rest until I have you
