Every Letter (Radio Edit) ft. Peter Dinklage, Kelvin Harrison Jr., Bryce Dessner, Aaron Dessner & Víkingur Ólafsson - Haley Bennett

...

The ink on the paper makes me nervous

I nearly lose my vision

And then my breath, and my pulse and my mind quickens

Head below my knees,

I come alive with every stroke of every letter

In every line you write keeps me awake thinking back oh...

My first sight of you was my first heart attack

Every letter make me lose my reason

Every word is like your kindest touch

And if i told you how much I need you

Would you give me your self or turn and run

You light up desire just by describing it

I read to myself until i go blind

Your words fall around me all through the night

I can't resist and I don't want to fight

Will you be held?

Will you be touched?

By my hand through this paper

Is this all too much?

Will we be ravaged? Will we be true?

To somebody perfect, somebody like you?

I'm tired of yearning

I'm tired of learning

I need to drink you, my heart has been burning

Ever since i saw you, backwards through the glass

Of a thin window pain

Like a thin see through mask

These words are the truth

Just let them sink in

Through your thin fingered gloves

To your hand, to your skin

Like ribbon on wrists, let them hold you and twist

Let them touch you all over until you can't resist

Every letter makes me lose my reason

Every word is like your kindest touch

And if i told you how much i need you

Would you give me yourself or turn and run(×2)

You light up desire just by describing it

I read to myself until i go blind

Your words fall around me

All through the night

I cant resist and I don't want to fight

Dim the lights give me everything, I want

Just talk to me like you do in your songs

Your letters are drawing on me from above

I know who you are and i know you are loved
