Will You?

On a cold January morning
I know that what I have won't sustain me
And though we're friends
We could be so much more if you'd just try
I know there's more
That you're not telling me
Because you're afraid of what could be
But will you be brave and face the facts
That appear to me so obvious
And turn your fears over to trust the love?

I know that I might self-destruct
And turn this body into dust
Become the ghost the haunts your everything
So will you come and rescue me
From all the lonely suffering
And take away the doubts within my mind?
And will you give me the wings I need
To jump off of this cliff and be
The person that I know I am inside?

Will you?

You know you're lonely
And aching for the love you know you need
But will you take the risk
Of having your heart broken yet again?
You know there's more
Than just the two of us
Alone and waiting on a miracle
There can be more
Than the restlessness at night
And I know we can be all we're waiting for

I know that I might self-destruct
And turn this body into dust
Become the ghost the haunts your everything
So will you come and rescue me
From all the lonely suffering
And take away the doubts within my mind?
And will you give me the wings I need
To jump off of this cliff and be
The person that I know I am inside?

Will you see the light at the end of the road
And disregard the omens that forbode
What we have together now?
Will you be the love that will end it for me
Create the light so that I can finally see
And will you be happy now?

You know there's more
Than just the two of us
Alone and waiting on a miracle
There can be more
Than the emptiness inside
And I know we can be all we're waiting for

So will you come and rescue me
From all the lonely suffering
And take away the doubts within my mind?
And will you give me the wings I need
To jump off of this cliff and be
The person that I know I am inside?

Will You?
