Whispered Prayer

The world outside is spinning fast I’m tired of running from the past I built these walls to keep me safe But they just left me in this empty place Then you walked in and changed the air Looked at me like I was really there And all the armor that I wore Just melted down upon the floor I’m fragile like the winter glass Please let this moment never pass I’m giving you my open heart Don’t tear this fragile thing apart Touch me gently, like a whispered prayer Run your fingers through my tangled hair Hold me close when the shadows grow Promise me you’ll never let me go Trace my skin like you’re reading my soul Make me feel completely, beautifully whole When the world is cold and I don't know where to go Just hold me in your arms, and never let me go I’ve walked through fire, I’ve been cold I’ve played the part, I’ve done what I was told But your hands are steady, warm and true I’m finally breathing, breathing you No heavy words, no grand design Just your heartbeat tangled up with mine I’m scared to love, I’m scared to fall But you’re the safest place of all I’m fragile like the winter glass Please let this moment never pass I’m giving you my open heart Don’t tear this fragile thing apart Touch me gently, like a whispered prayer Run your fingers through my tangled hair Hold me close when the shadows grow Promise me you’ll never let me go Trace my skin like you’re reading my soul Make me feel completely, beautifully whole When the world is cold and I don't know where to go Just hold me in your arms, and never let me go If the morning tries to steal the dawn I’ll hold my breath until the night is gone Don’t pull away, don’t break the spell In your arms is where I want to dwell I’m surrendering, I’m letting go Of everything I thought I needed to know Just keep me here... Touch me gently... like a whispered prayer... Run your fingers through my tangled hair... Hold me close when the shadows grow! Promise me you’ll never let me go! Trace my skin like you’re reading my soul Make me feel completely, beautifully whole When the world is cold and I don't know where to go Just hold me in your arms, and never let me go Never let me go... Just touch me... So gently... Don't let go. Keep me here. Don't let go. *(Whispered)* Never let me go.
