I found you among the shadows and the branches A rare and precious thing I tried to call out but I didn't hear an answer You were too far away It was the spring and my life was a patchwork of pieces Sewn and tattered memories I got the feeling yours was somehow the same And I took to you like a bird takes to its wings Let me in, let me in, let me in before my hands Let me in before my hands begin Let me in before you find that I'm hollow on the inside Let me in before my hands begin to shake We got married in the summer We set ourselves to fall It went right though we did the damn thing twice Maybe I'm not the marrying kind Let me in, let me in, let me in before my hands Let me in before my hands begin Let me in before you find that I'm hollow on the inside Let me in before my hands begin to shake Let me in before my hands begin to shake Let me in before my hands begin
