Well it's how I see you
When I see you from below
And I feel no other
Lights or sounds or things I know
Only your glow, only your glow
So converse me with a
Steady tone of where you've been
But I know that you're a
Timid love beneath the skin
Breaking you in, breaking you in
I don't know you but I know what you do
And I know you carry
A sense of wariness I see
You're the one I'm wanting
With the plainest clarity
Turning in me, burning in me
I don't know you but I know what you do
You level me
Sincerely from the centre of you
And it's how I see you
When I see you from below
