lyrics

I backpedal into all the days that are done
And my chest still burns for you like a Phoenix, a rising sun
I'll stand and waste away like a man made out of sand
For all of time
Until your love is mine
Until your love is mine

Yes I will wait here for your soul
To come creeping in like so long ago
I swear I'll never understand God's cruel design
Oh until your love is mine
Until your love is mine

So don't let me waste away
I've been longing just to feel your skin
I've been living all of my days
Dying a little until I see you again

I see the growing seaward storm
And my feet, detached, make tracks where the ocean meets the shore
I'll sail off aimlessly though my guiding stars won't shine
Oh until your love is mine
Until your love is mine

One soul, swallowed whole in an ocean's belly sleeps
I feel the sun is real and it burns me dark and deep
Yes I may die out here but I'll never feel alive
Oh until your love is mine
Until your love is mine

So don't let me waste away
I've been longing just to feel your skin
I've been living all of my days
Dying a little until I see you again

I'll walk in the darkness, black and blind
I'll stand at the edge of my own life with no track of time
Yes I would sacrifice everything that I call "mine"
Oh until your love is mine
Until your love is mine
Until your love is mine
Until your love is mine

Taylor is one of many contemporary singer-songwriters who plants one foot firmly in the roots of artists such as Bob Dylan and Neil Young while at the same time pushing forward with his own unique voice. And Taylor’s particular voice so imbued with a sense of honesty and earnestness that it is almost impossible not to welcome each of his songs with open arms.-American Songwriter ... more
