Iris... Goo Goo Dolls

...Summer, 1998

And I'd give up forever to touch you

Cause I know that you'd feel me somehow

You're the closest thing to heaven that I'll ever be

And I don't want to go home right now

 

And all I can taste is this moment

And all I can breathe is your life

Cause sooner or later it's over

I just don't want to miss you tonight

 

And I don't want the world to see me

Cause I don't think that they'd understand

When everything's made to be broken

I just want you to hknow who I am

 

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming

Or the moment of truth in your lies

When everything seems like the movies

Yeah you bleed just to know your alive

 

And I don't want the world to see me

Cause I don't think that they'd understand

When everything's made to be broken

I just want you to know who I am

 

I don't want the world to see me

Cause I don't think that they'd understand

When everything's made to be broken

I just want you to know who I am

 

I just want you to know who I am...
