Where Are We?

WHERE ARE WE
I HAVE TO KNOW
JUST TELL ME
CAUSE I ALMOST FORGOT WHAT IT FEELS LIKE
YOU BROUGHT BACK TO MIND
HOW IT FEELS TO FEEL THIS REAL,
TO REMEMBER WHAT LOVE IS.

I DON'T EVEN REMEMBER HOW IT BEGAN,
I FELL TOO FAST
THERE WAS SOMETHING ABOUT THE WAY YOU LAUGHED,
THE GAZE YOU CAST.

YOUR PAST IS BROKEN LIKE MINE,
YOU LOST THAT GIFT.
HE FORGAVE US MUCH,
GAVE US BACK THE GIFT.

WHERE ARE WE...
... TO REMEMBER WHAT LOVE IS.

YOU DON'T NEED TO PROVE ANYTHING,
THAT YOU KNOW.
HOW YOU ARE IN A HUMOR FEW UNDERSTAND,
YOU I WANNA KNOW.

DO WE HAVE TO COMMIT TO ANYTHING NOW,
I JUST WANNA SEE YOU.
LEARN WHAT BURNS INSIDE YOUR HEART,
CAN WE START SOMETHING NEW.

WHERE ARE WE...
... TO REMEMBER WHAT LOVE IS.

I KNOW HE HURT YOU AND YOU HURT YOURSELF,
BUT LEAVE IT BEHIND.
YOU ARE FORGIVEN OF ALL,
EASE YOUR MIND.

NOW I BEG TO KNOW YOU MORE,
DO YOU SEE IN ME;
YOU HELD MY HAND IN THE DARKNESS,
OPEN MY EYES TO SEE.

WHERE ARE WE...
... TO REMEMBER WHAT LOVE IS.

I AM NAIVE AND LOST,
BUT ALLOW ME TO HOLD YOUR HAND AGAIN.
CAN I JUST WALK WITH YOU,
LET GO OF THE FEAR THAT HAS BEEN...
