A love song’s just a love song, till I sing it to you
Then it flies like a bird through my heart
A morning’s just a morning, till I wake up with you
Then it’s a song, and you’re the melody that leads me from the dark.
Everybody knows that I am
Half a heart, half a heart, half a heart without you
You are the song in me.
There was no beginning, no love at first sight
You’ve just always been here.
You are the reason I can dream when I’m asleep at night
You’re in my heartbeat, keeping me safe inside.
Everybody knows that I am
Half a heart, half a heart, half a heart without you
You are the song in me.
There was a time I tried to walk away and leave you
The air so cold I couldn’t breathe.
But now I know I turned around cause I believe you are the better half of me.
Half a heart, half a heart, half a heart without you
You are the song in me.
