Still

My heart cried out for you
Over an ocean
And your pain cried out for me
Across a wave

You hid half dead,
Numb to any emotion
Cause you were a prisoner
And I was a slave.

We'd both stopped searching for
Any acceptance
And rejection always was our bitter pill
Cause I have no precious gifts to give you
I only have four words
Darling, I love you,
I love you, still

I never thought someone would ever see,
Or make a prisoner of my heart
But like a warrior dressed in armor
You carved your name in it,
Right from the start

You held my soul a hostage
In your tower on the hill
And all I pray for when I sleep
Or lay awake,
Is that you love me, still

My heart cried out for you
Over an ocean
And your pain cried out for me
Across a wave.
You hid half dead,
Numb to any emotion
Now you are my prisoner,
And I am your slave.

We'd both stopped searching for
Any acceptance
And rejection always was our bitter pill
Cause I have no precious gifts to give you
Oh, I only have these words
Darling, I love you,
I love you, still.

Oh, baby, I love you,
I love you, still.
