Mine, immaculate dream made breath and skin
I've been waiting for you
Signed with a home tattoo
Happy birthday to you was created for you

Can't ever keep from falling apart at the seams
Can I believe you're taking my heart to pieces?

Ah, it'll take a little time
Might take a little crime to come undone
Now we'll try to stay blind to the hope and fear outside
Hey child, stay wilder than the wind and blow me in to cry

Who do you need?
Who do you love?
When you come undone

Who do you need?
Who do you love?
When you come undone

Words, playing me deja vu
Like a radio tune, I swear I've heard before
Chill, is it something real?
Or the magic I'm feeding off your fingers

Can't ever keep from falling apart at the seams
Can I believe you're taking my heart to pieces?

Lost, in a snow filled sky
We'll make it alright to come undone
Now we'll try to stay blind to the hope and fear outside
Hey child, stay wilder than the wind and blow me in to cry

Who do you need?
Who do you love?
When you come undone

Who do you need?
Who do you love?
When you come undone (can't ever keep from falling apart)

Who do you need?
Who do you love?
When you come undone (can't ever keep from falling apart)

Who do you need?
Who do you love? (Can't ever keep from falling apart)
Who do you love?
When you come undone

    When I served in Kosovo, there was this guy that could sing this song word for word, including inflection, accent everything...He loved it, he also did not understand a word of english...

    For me this song was about two interwoven themes, who do you turn to when everything in your life falls apart and you are on the verge of insanity by the loss of everything familiar around you. Where is the place, who is the person that you can turn to, to "reset" your reality?

    The other, more positive theme, is the act of meeting someone that makes you drop all your preconceptions, your self defences and you throw self preservation to the wind to risk everything to be with this person.
