Violet
Darwyn Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've been digging through my skin
And I'm trying to make some sense
Of what's within
Where to begin?

There's feeling deep inside my soul now
That I just can't control
No matter how
Hard I try

Girl, I put it down to when
I first threw my arms around you
I knew right then
Nobody could feel better

You're the one who'll catch me
When I'm falling
You're the one I'm thinking 'bout
The one I'm falling for

You're the only one who heard
When I was calling
You're the one I put my trust
In dusk 'til dawn in

No-one could replace the way
You feel, you touch
You're tasting oh so sweet
Knocked off my feet

You have made a mark on me
That feels as though it's there
For all to see
Lucky me

Girl, I put it down to when
I first threw my arms around you
I knew right then
That this could be forever

You're the one who'll catch me
When I'm falling
You're the one I'm thinking 'bout
The one I'm falling for

You're the only one who heard
When I was calling
You're the one I put my trust
In dusk 'til dawn in

Yesterday I found you
I thank god when I'm around you
I hope you know
Nobody could do you better

You're the one who'll catch me
When I'm falling




You're the one I put my trust
In dusk 'til dawn in
