Karen, you step in and the whole room changes
You bring a sweet warmth to the coldest of spaces
You take four walls and you make them a home
A cozy little sanctuary to call our own
It's in your thoughtful nature, the way that you care
I feel a perfect peace whenever you're there
Chorus'Cause when I'm with you, the whole world fades
Into the background, lost in the shade
I just wanna pause time, freeze the hands on the clock
Make every second last forever, keep our love on lock
Yeah, when I'm with you, the noise disappears
I want forever to be right here
Verse 2And just when I think you couldn't be any sweeter
You show off a side that pulls me in deeper
My beautiful girl with a rebel alliance
Quoting The Empire Strikes Back with a playful defiance
A total Star Wars geek, yeah, you know every line
I look at you and I'm so glad that you're mine
Chorus'Cause when I'm with you, the whole world fades
Into the background, lost in the shade
I just wanna pause time, freeze the hands on the clock
Make every second last forever, keep our love on lock
Yeah, when I'm with you, the noise disappears
I want forever to be right here
BridgeI look at our memories, the treasure we've made
Worshiping together by the concert stage
The music was playing, but my eyes were on you
Then came the sunset, painting the view
Our very first kiss in the fading light
I hold it to my heart every single night
Verse 3Every moment with you is a prize I keep close
You're the peace in my mind when I need it the most
A welcoming sanctuary, tender and true
There is nobody else in the galaxy but you
So let the stars spin and the planets align
As long as I'm holding your hand inside mine
Final Chorus'Cause when I'm with you, the whole world fades
Into the background, lost in the shade
I just wanna pause time, freeze the hands on the clock
Make every second last forever, keep our love on lock
Yeah, when I'm with you, the noise disappears
I want forever to be right here
