Lyrics

[Verse] You are born from a force of your father You were cut from the same cloth as I You were brought forth, bathing in a light of your own You're the life I hide asleep by my side You're the language I speak in the blink of an eye You're the promise that I'll keep until the day that I die You're the stillness in the woes that follow me to my bed You're the patience that I seek as time's not done with you yet [Pre-Chorus] But still, you're everything [Chorus] God could try all that he wants with all the time that he has But he will never create something as divine as I have You're a nearer kind of heaven than any god I've known You're the universe I can't believe I can call my own [Bridge] Slow down waters, don't take him from me I've waited a lifetime for him to be Slow down waters, don't take him from me I've waited a lifetime for him to be Slow down waters, don't take him from me I've waited a lifetime for him Slow down waters don't take him from me, oh-oh-oh I've waited a lifetime for him to be [Vocalisation] [Outro] I'll become an angel just to watch over you And wipe your tears when you fall And when I leave this world I won't be gone from you forever So don't you cry for me at all I'll become an angel just to watch over you And wipe your tears when you fall And when I leave this world I won't be gone from you forever So don't you cry for me at all
