Words to Steal Your Heart


Let me steal you away with a couple words.

Bring your heart up high, higher than the birds.

Take away your breath, for its mine to keep.

Pull you in my arms, til you fall asleep.

Just wait a second don't close your eyes

I need a little truth in this world of lies

Your smile is honest as honest can be

And your lips speak wonders that ring true to me

Let's talk about stories, let's talk about birds

Let me steal your heart with a couple words
