Alanna Boudreau - The Tension Lyrics

A woman's heart is quite like the sea
A man's is more like the earth
He is vexed by close-ness, and she
Is vexed by the depth of her worth
They're hurt by the limits of words

I will love you so much that I'll tear you down
I will love you so much that I'll tear you down
I will love you so much I'll tear you down:
I will love you right into the ground

A prideful man will fancy that he
Can gather her reasons like shells
He will set one foot in her sea
And claim to have conquered her swells
He'll claim that he knows her so well

A modest girl is heaven on earth
She breathes beauty into a man
But a hasty woman scatters her pearls
And sends fire all across the land
She clings to old scorn with old hands

I will love you so much that I'll tear you down
I will love you so much that I'll tear you down
I will love you so much I'll tear you down:
I will love you right into the ground
Well here's the key, and all the rest
Here I stand before you in white
And we sit like kids upon the bed
As the rain shakes through the pines

I will love you so much that I'll tear you down...
I will love you so much that I'll tear you down...
I will love you so much that I'll tear you down...

I will love you right up from the ground
