Crack The Code Lyrics

I want the words

 something you haven't heard

 will I find them and

 will I have what it takes to say them

 in the world beside

 this one there are no lies and

 no suspicion

 only dreams without end

 

 You gotta feel what I mean

 Look into my eyes and know

 I'm trying to come clean

 But I stumble every time

 And then the words they escape

 fail to take shape

 It's all in the code now (come again)

 

 Feel what I mean

 Look into my eyes and know

 I'm trying to come clean

 But I stumble every time

 And then the words they escape

 fail to take shape

 It's all in the code now 

 

 Will you let me retract let me take it back

 Sometimes my words lack and my mind flies off the track

 What I'm trying to convey is miles from what I say

 And you slip away

 

 In life there are times

 when nothing will rhyme

 there are days I slip

 when I know I should climb

 breakin' the vows I swore I'd never break

 a harsh word a white lie easy to mistake

 where have you been 

 haven't you noticed

 there's no map that exists

 to point us out of this

 my heart was the target

 it found your arrow

 baby you know I want to be

 your straight and narrow

 

 I been trying to transmit a feeling

 I been hoping you receive what I'm revealing

 See the main thing is hang with me and relate

 As we communicate watch out 

 Fenced in like a dog between houses

 Balled up by the trouble my mouth gets

 Wrapped up in the things that I don't know 

 don't you know 

 Hoping that you crack the code oh

 

 The first to crack the code

 (You may not think I'm ready to have your love again) oh oh

 (You may not think I'm ready)

 You are the first to crack my code

 

 I want the words

 something you haven't heard

 will I find them and

 will I have what it takes to say them

 

 You gotta gotta feel what I mean

 Look into my eyes and know

 I'm trying to come clean

 But I stumble every time

 And then the words they escape

 fail to take shape

 It's all in the code now 

 

 Didn't I know I'm wrong wrong wrong when you knew

 You didn't have to give me so long long long to see through

 Not predictable what I will do but you know

 Cause you cracked the code

 

 Your body is a country

 that you know I'll return to

 craving like a family heirloom

 that I am into

 no baby how could I follow

 everything you do

 just remember when we touch

 I feel so renewed

 

 The first to understand me that would be you

 It can't work if we can't be open and true

 The best thing to happen to me let it be told

 That would be the moment that you cracked my code oh oh

 

 The first to crack the code

 (You may not think I'm ready to have your love again) oh oh

 (You may not think I'm ready)

 You are the first to crack my code
