I woke up from a dream you said I wasn't having
and every night it drove me to tears
and after years of denial and figments of my imagination
I've come to realize that this is real

I stopped into your driveway, some familiar pavement
where we looked to the stars for our answers
but all the answers we found, we found in each other
and the stars became our pupils

When you gonna say you know
when you gonna say you feel it
when you gonna say you believe in me
if the water turns to dust
and our candle turns to rust
well then maybe that's the thing you see in you and me

So if I'm spilling my guts over all these songs
does it mean you'll never see me the same way
when you get a glimpse of the stranger
do you run from the danger
like a cat that's just met its prey

Some things I say, I know they cause a little pain
but believe me, I don't want to break your heart
but all the things I feel, baby, this is for real
and I know this is tearing you apart

When you gonna say you know
when you gonna say you feel it
when you gonna say you believe in me
if the water turns to dust
and our candle turns to rust
well then maybe that's the thing you see in you and me

When you gonna say you know
when you gonna say you feel it
when you gonna say you believe in me
if the water turns to dust
and our candle turns to rust
well then maybe that's the thing you see in you and me
