[Verse 1]
You mean the world to me
I knew that moment then
Your eyes poured into mine
I saw myself
You now are home to me
It’s in the little things
We now have years between
Silences of knowing
Eternities in seconds
Unfolding in dreams I feel the future of our lives
[Chorus]
Come on inside this broken heart and make a home
Come on inside these empty arms and hold me close
Come on inside the bedtime covers, feel my warmth
Come on inside my secret places, I am yours
[Verse 2]
There is a universe
There is a galaxy
There is an easy chair
Here inside of me
Waiting here for you and me
Let’s build a life together—I’ve waited too long
[Chorus]
Come on inside this broken heart and make a home
Come on inside these empty arms and hold me close
Come on inside the quilted covers, feel my warmth
Come on inside my secret places, I am yours
[Bridge]
Maybe fire raged
Maybe karma played its way
Maybe all my life was blind
So I could find you
[Chorus]
Come on inside this broken heart and make a home
Come on inside these empty arms and hold me close
Come on inside the nighttime covers, feel my warmth
Come on inside my secret places, I am yours
You mean the world to me
I knew that moment then
Your eyes poured into mine
I saw myself
You now are home to me
It’s in the little things
We now have years between
Silences of knowing
Eternities in seconds
Unfolding in dreams I feel the future of our lives
[Chorus]
Come on inside this broken heart and make a home
Come on inside these empty arms and hold me close
Come on inside the bedtime covers, feel my warmth
Come on inside my secret places, I am yours
[Verse 2]
There is a universe
There is a galaxy
There is an easy chair
Here inside of me
Waiting here for you and me
Let’s build a life together—I’ve waited too long
[Chorus]
Come on inside this broken heart and make a home
Come on inside these empty arms and hold me close
Come on inside the quilted covers, feel my warmth
Come on inside my secret places, I am yours
[Bridge]
Maybe fire raged
Maybe karma played its way
Maybe all my life was blind
So I could find you
[Chorus]
Come on inside this broken heart and make a home
Come on inside these empty arms and hold me close
Come on inside the nighttime covers, feel my warmth
Come on inside my secret places, I am yours
