High lyrics

Just twenty-four more hours,

but I'm not breathing right.

Eternity until I have you... by my side.

Anticipation rising.

The seconds pass so slow.

I listen for your heartbeat

like a knock upon the door.

Feel me breathe in slow motion, lose control.

Just let go and let this dream take over.

I wait for dark to fall again,

so I can be alive and then,

by your side I will give in to this high.

Surrender now to ecstasy.

Move with me and make me real.

Count the hours 'til I can feel this high.

The silver sky surrounds us,

our secret symphony.

The world is bursting into colour... you're with me.

And I'm not thinking clearly

in this euphoric haze.

Love, don't leave me longing.

Just carry me away.

I am yours, take me over, lose control.

Just let go and let this dream take over.

I wait for dark to fall again,

so I can be alive and then,

by your side I will give in to this high.

Surrender now to ecstasy.

Move with me and make me real.

Count the hours 'til I can feel this high.

Frame by frame it's repeating.

For this I have been waiting.

I feel myself awaking from this high.

I try so hard to hold on,

but when the sun is rising,

just twelve more hours to go on until this high.

Surrender now to ecstasy.

Move with me and make me real.

Count the hours 'til I can feel this high.

Just twenty-four more hours,

but I'm not breathing right.

Eternity until I have you... by my side.
