As I Listen

As I listen to the sound of the fire
Burning and shining with a deep desire
To fall in love with you again
To run to you through the rain

All I want is for you to look into my eyes
To love me, hold me, and realize
That I will always be with you
To hold your hand and lead you though

I will never leave you behind
I will always refuse to lie
To the one that saved my life
One too many times

What am I supposed to do now?
With you gone, wishing to see you somehow
Every second I spend
Wishing that this agony will end

You left me, cutting a deep gash in my heart
A disease spreads through me, tearing me apart
I'm going senseless
So tired, yet so restless

Hold me in your arms, let it be
Let me feel your body against mine as I sleep
You're my everything and more
Come inside away from the lies and burdens you bore

I want to be the star you whisper to
When you can't figure out what to do
Lay down, relax
And take my hand, let's go back

To a place where we can be alone
A place far away that we can call home
Don't leave me without knowing how I feel
I know what you want, something real

This is the fantasy we've always had
Make this be something more than a fad
You're my Romeo,
I'm your Juliet, you know?
