The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I just want something beautiful

I wanna look in your eyes

I wanna listen to you sing my favorite song and cry

I wanna reach into your oceans

I wanna calm your sea and your storms

I wanna let you take a hold of this sinking ship and lead me home

But I am not what you need

But only so much stronger

But you are such a pleasant fiction to me

So I guess that I'll dream of you a little longer

I wanna pack up and move with you

And never look behind

I wanna take your hand as we chase down the skyline

I wanna tell you my stories

And wake you up in the middle of the night

I want you to tell me I'm wrong

And I just want you to smile at me when I'm right

But I am not what you need

But only so much stronger

But you are such a pleasant fiction to me

So I guess that I'll dream of you a little longer

A little longer

Don't wanna take the light from your eyes

It would be nice if I could hold you tight

While we lay in the sand

You could love what's left of this lonely excuse of a man

But I am not what you need

But only so much stronger

But you are such a pleasant fiction to me

So I guess I'll dream of you a little longer

And I am not what you need

And only so much more

But you are such a pleasant fiction to me

I guess I'll dream that you're here to keep me warm

Keep me warm
