When I hold you in my arms I feel closer to the stars,
The light shines a little brighter,
My load in life a little lighter,
When I look into your eyes I see the best parts of me reflected,
When I tell you it will all be fine and that you are all mine,
I want you to feel protected,
I want your sorrows to melt away,
Underneath all the pain and sorrow,
I wish for you a brighter tomorrow.
I cannot say what you mean to me,
For the words don’t exist,
I could compare you to a sun set or a work of art,
But none of those can truly show you my heart,
My heart for you burns with passion,
It pours forth in a tidal wave,
All I can
Standing in the shadows of giants,
Left from the decisions we put behind,
Figured they were best left there.
These things we lose behind us,
Leave a path so broken as to be worthless,
Yet we walked that road.
Maybe one day we'll turn around,
See the path we have wrought,
Only to see there is only one way.
Forward,
Forward into the darkness,
In hope that there is a dawn,
Never knowing if that is the sun rise, or the set.
We write a book that we don't even know,
Our steps are words, our years are chapters,
Our blood marks the pages we will never forget,
There are songs about our love and regret.
Is this an epic tale of herois
As the days go by,
I'm left wondering why,
I'm not by your side.
When you shut your eyes,
Or look to the skies,
I want you to know I'm there,
I am the wind whispering in your ear,
I am the one who catches you when you fall,
I am the shadow on the wall.
And I want you to know,
I love you for not only who you are,
But who I am when I'm with you.
