Inspired by a song of the same name |
Always I may not write great love songs I guess I'm not well versed, versed with hearts that beat strong, both blessed, and fairly cursed All I know is that you matter, I know when you're not here You make me wish for better, with a future far from clear A future I'd not planned for, a blueprint set askew A solo journey bland, tore, … realigned for two A space designed for me alone, yet now I want you there, need you where I used to roam, alone without a care I yearn to be a better man I want you in this space I want to know just where I stand I yearn to know my place Staring at your sun too long, with eyes stunned, double glazed Finally found someone that strong, the power of a gaze Someone who could break on through, these barriers I've raised Fortress walls that once held true, have crumbled, lost... Amazed amazed at things that lived outside, all this time unknown Now I see the lonely ride, I opted for, seeds sewn Seeds sewn for a barren crop with cold nights in the field I think it's time to call a stop, to natures law, I yield As I lay back counting sheep, this dream of you abides Each eyelash counted whilst you sleep, imagined by my side Kisses lit on sleeping lips, on foreheads rested light Post it notes scribed in the morn with fond adieus at night Nights when conversation runs, ringing through the dark, freed from reservations, suns, lost within the sparks … yet love songs stay a mystery, with pasts and presents tense All I know's you count to me, … with you it all makes sense |
