Lyrics
Would You Mind?
It's 3am, I'm still up; sipping on my second cup, I can't sleep
Seems every night's the same routine;
I re-live that final scene.
You know the one, when I take my things and leave
It's not the first time I have run
Got afraid when I saw love come
But, it's the first time I regret what I have done;
Oh, can we undo what I have done.
Would you mind, if I stopped by your place
I miss your sweet face; your warm smile
Would you mind if I lay against your chest
Maybe we could rest for just a while
And if your heart's steady beat should lull me down to sleep
Could you hold me tight through the night?
I thought I could close your door, go back to where I was before, I felt you
Now I'm battling with these evening blues,
A fight that I don't want to lose
I know it's time, I stop running from the truth
I was a fool to think I could resist
When you laid your hands against my hips
You stole my breath when you held me with your kiss
Oh, ¬¬¬¬I felt my breath go with your kiss
I'm sorry if I hurt you when I ran away to hide
Acted like a coward I pushed your love aside
If it's not too late can we give it one more try
Would you mind, if I stopped by your place
I miss your sweet face; your warm smile
Would you mind if I lay against your chest
Maybe we could rest, for just a while
And if your heart's steady beat should lull me down to sleep
Could you hold me tight through the night?
We can hold each other tight
Until everything's alright
Would you mind?
