Like a silhouette, like a silhouette, like a silhouette
There was a time for courage and I let it pa**
I couldn't find it in the presence of a beauty so vast
I was lost in a labyrinth and didn't wanna escape
I was drowning in love and I was calling it fate
Now I don't know where we're going
Delayed by the pain within
No, I don't know where we're going
Delayed by the doubts within
I could've told you how bad I needed you
I could've told you, I could've told you
But I just kept letting you slip through
You keep slipping through my fingertips like a silhouette
Like a silhouette, like a silhouette
I wanna live on the edge and die by your side
But whenever I get around you I just get tongue-tied
So how can we have forever if we never really start
And how can we come together if I always fall apart
How can we have forever if you keep slipping through my fingertips
Like a silhouette, like a silhouette
If you keep slipping through my fingertips
Like a silhouette, like a silhouette
Heaven and Hell, everything else is just in between
You and me together is nothing more than a dream
And I'm so scared of my own feelings
That I will never let ‘em show
Say I'm so scared of my own feelings
That I will never tell you how much it hurts when you go
And I'm gonna cry alone while I let you slip away
You keep slipping through my fingertips like a silhouette
Like a silhouette, like a silhouette
I wanna live on the edge and die by your side
But whenever I get around you I just get tongue-tied
So how can we have forever if we never really start
And how can we come together if I always fall apart
