Wait, when am I gonna lose you? How will I let you slip through? Careless or unkind? Trace the curving on the coastline The Santa Lucia cliffside We'll stay here for the night I remember you said Everything has its place Now I lie in our bed Wondering how to explain You When am I gonna lose you? When am I gonna lose you? When am I gonna lose you? When am I gonna lose? Take another one if you need it Or do you already feel it? I felt it from the start A gray silhouette of you dancing A shadow play that we're cast in On the cabin walls You were floating to me In a slow motion fade Could I finally see Between belief and faith? You When am I gonna lose you? When am I gonna lose you? When am I gonna lose you, you? When am I gonna lose? I remember you closing the shutters And laying down by my side And the light that was still slipping through It was painting your body in stripes I remember the trees summoned down Like an archangel choir And the ocean was all we could see And I knew that I wanted you I remember you closing the shutters And laying down by my side And the light that was still slipping through It was painting your body in stripes I remember the trees summoned down Like an archangel choir And the ocean was all we could see And I knew that I wanted you When am I gonna lose? When am I gonna lose you? When am I gonna lose you, you? When am I gonna lose?
