It was a cold and stormy night
I was cold and I was frightened
I could have watched the bats all night
Through my young eyes
Through your youthful eyes
Felt like an insect in the fire
I was small and I was frightened
I could have asked you for a light
I wanted to ask you if you could save my life
So please don't go
I never wanted to be your hero
Don't break your bones
Remember that I feel it that much worse
The days drip into nights, slip into weeks
Break all my dreams and then
We're still alive again
To you eternity's sometimes a drag
For me forever breaks my backboard
I can still feel each brush stroke pass me by
Painting us, shaping us, painting us in our portrait above the fire
Princess Charming, remember we were once nice?
Princess Charming, there is nothing to be scared of
With my old eyes
On your old eyes
Hold my hand
This is nice
