[Verse] Gentle one
How will we keep from sinking
I know you've been thinking
Our love is on the line

I dreamt last night
That all the world was fleeting
Our bodies receding
Just shaking in the blight

[Chorus] Oh love could never live
In a place like this you said
All that I can give
Is just not enough for you

Gentle one
I know I'm half the man that I should be
I look into the mirror
I don't know who looks back at me

[Verse] Gentle one
We've got to make it bright tonight
To free the chains from every mind
To keep the dream alive

I want you
I need you to mesmerize
To drown me in bedroom eyes
Until the morning comes

[Chorus] Oh love could never live
In a place like this you said
All that I can give
Is just not enough for you

Gentle one
I know I'm half the man that I should be
I look into the mirror
I don't know who looks back at me

[Bridge] I think I'm sick
And you're just trying to help
Am I perpetually thick
Am I just living in hell

[Chorus] Oh love could never live
In a place like this you said
All that I can give
Is just not enough for you

Gentle one
I know I'm half the man that I should be
I look into the mirror
I don't know who looks back at me

Gentle one
I know I'm half the man that I should be
I look into the mirror
I don't know who looks back at me
