I want to, I want to hold you

Every time I go homeThere′s another cell phone tower

Construction getting louder

Paving over yesterdays

You and I

We will try to find the side of it that's pretty

While our town becomes a city

We won′t let it be erased

Empires rise, empires fall

Will you be my constant through it all?

I will hold your hand

And watch the world spin madly 'round this life we're in

Oh yeah, everything goes quiet when it′s you I′m with

Oh yeah, everything goes quiet when it's you I′m with (you, you, you)

Every once in a while

You know I get these real bad headaches

Worried about the mistakes

That I've made along the way

You and I

We can′t hide

From the fact that we need each other

How else will I recover

When the fever comes again?

Temperatures rise, temperatures fall

Will you be my constant through it all?

I will hold your hand

And watch the world spin madly 'round this life, we′re in

Oh yeah, everything goes quiet when it's you I'm with

Oh yeah, everything goes quiet when it′s you I′m with (you, you, you)

There are no words, no words

When I'm with you, you, you

Every time I hear music

They′ve added more stuff to it

Things are always moving

To a futuristic place

Well, you and I

We will try

We can try and dance into tomorrow

But time will have to borrow

Not a minute left to waste

Heartbeats rise, heartbeats fall

Will you be my constant through it all?

I will hold your hand

And watch the world spin madly 'round this life we′re in

Oh yeah, everything goes quiet when it's you I′m with

Oh yeah, everything goes quiet when it's you I'm with

Everything goes quiet when it′s you I′m with

Everything goes quiet when it's you I′m with
