Out of the pages of books that I've read
I can recall
Where someone somewhere said
"If you don't succeed
Try again"
So I'm coming to you
With my heart in my hand
Using every ounce of strength I have
Don't turn me away
'Cause I live and breathe you
God knows how much I need you
And I'll never leave you
God knows I love you
Too insecure
As lovers we failed
The princess and the white knight live in fairy tales
"And so the story goes"
You read so right
From the very start
But here we are both with broken hearts
Let's not part this way
'Cause I live and breathe you
God knows how much I need you
And I'll never leave you
God knows I love you
Time ran away
And took you by the hand
If I can't bring you back
Maybe time can
'Cause I live and breathe you
God knows how much I need you
And I'll never leave you
God knows I love you
God knows
How much I need you
Well, I'm sure He knows
How much I love you
Well, I'm sure He knows
How much I want you
Oh, baby
I'm sure He knows
God knows how much I need you
God knows how much I love you
God knows how much I love you
