[Verse 1]
You've been crying, and I'm crazy about you
I've been lying, and hanging you up, because
I'm deep on the inside, but flash on the outside
I am the thunder, and you are my lightning
Give me the love, baby, give me the key to your heart[x2]
Give me the love, give me the key to your heart
Months of watching, and hours of hoping
That you'd want me, when you see me again
For I am an eagle, but my wings are all tied up
You got the power to fly me again
You've been trying to build walls all around you
But you're lying, because I've already been through
And I've seen you trying to capture that feeling
But you're chasing what you've never believed in
Months of watching
And hours of hoping
That you'd want me
When you see me again
For I am an eagle
But my wings are all tied up
You got the power
To fly me again

[Chorus][x2]
So, give me the love, baby
Give me the key to your heart
Give me the love, baby
Give me the key to your heart
Give me the love
Give me the key to your heart

[Verse 2]
You've been trying
To build walls all around you
But you're lying
Because I've already been through
And I've seen you trying
To capture that feeling
But you're chasing
What you've never believed in

[Chorus][x2]

[Bridge]
Tell me you love me
Tell me you need me

[Chorus][x2]
