the only love i know in my heart is this absent love left behind or up ahead some place i m always thinking of the only time i know in my head is this empty time that takes months to turn around into something that i ll leave behind the only peace i ve had in my life is this peace of mind and while it s there when i close my eyes it leaves me every night the only song i sing to pass the time is this lonely song and i ll sing it well even if no one catches on so who placed your name on the tip of my tongue who put your wind in the back of my lungs who gave my heart when it should ve been enough so be brave i would ve been if it wasn t for love i had a vision of a train that night in the station when we met in berlin and i cried in my sleep at the thought that it d take me away from you again now the only fear i have left in my chest is this fear of you and the thought that someday soon maybe you d fear me too so who placed your name on the tip of my tongue who put your wind in the back of my lungs who gave my heart when it should ve been enough so be brave i would ve been if it wasn t for love
