You got me standing at the altar of your midnight gaze
Tracing every shadow that the firelight plays
There's a holy kind of magic when you're pulling me near
Wiping out the traces of my every fear
The wooden floors are creaking as the embers glow
We are miles away from where the cold winds blow
I pour the bourbon, but I'm drinking in the sight of you
Lost inside a moment that I never want to undo
Your fingertips are weaving through the edge of my soul
Every time you pull me closer, I surrender control
I can feel the heavy rhythm of your beating heart
Taking every shadow and tearing it apart
I am standing at the altar of the love we make
A willing kind of captive for your loving sake
With the dawn a million miles from this tangled bed
I will worship every word that your silence said
Yeah, you burn me down like a candle in the dark
Leaving nothing but the embers and a beautiful spark
The windowpanes are heavy with the summer rain
I whisper all the feelings that I can't explain
Your lips are moving softly like a midnight tune
Dancing in the silver of a fading moon
Your fingertips are weaving through the edge of my soul
Every time you pull me closer, I surrender control
I can feel the heavy rhythm of your beating heart
Taking every shadow and tearing it apart
I am standing at the altar of the love we make
A willing kind of captive for your loving sake
With the dawn a million miles from this tangled bed
I will worship every word that your silence said
Yeah, you burn me down like a candle in the dark
Leaving nothing but the embers and a beautiful spark
I am standing at the altar of the love we make
A willing kind of captive for your loving sake
You have captured Sayed in this endless space
Finding my own heaven in the lines of your face
I've been searching for a sanctuary everywhere I go
And I finally found it in the only love I know
I am standing at the altar of the love we make
A willing kind of captive for your loving sake
With the dawn a million miles from this tangled bed
I will worship every word that your silence said
Tracing every shadow that the firelight plays
There's a holy kind of magic when you're pulling me near
Wiping out the traces of my every fear
