i was in a glass case when i first heard you
hidden in good things when you enchanted me
i was in a glass case when i first saw you
covered in old thoughts when you enchanted me

now i cannot smile enough
i cannot live enough
i long for your touch
i yearn for your love

i laughed when you told me how you have loved me
donning a lover's smile while you enchanted me
i cried when you told me how you have loved me
holding out trembling hands while you enchanted me

now i cannot smile enough
i cannot live enough
i long for your touch
i yearn for your love
and i cannot breathe enough
i cannot break enough
i long for your touch
i yearn for your love

i cannot smile
cannot live
cannot breathe
cannot break
cannot dance
cannot sing
cannot laugh
cannot say enough
i yearn for your love

i was in a glass case when i first heard you
