Things That You Are

The room is so quiet, the blanket is rising and falling with you as you breathe

My arms are your shelter, my chest is your pillow

I just love watching you sleep

I'm so jealous

Of the moonlight kissing your face

In about half an hour you'll kick off all the covers

I love watching you toss and turn

But for as much as I know, all the ways that you are

There's so much I need to learn

I'm so jealous

Of the white lace clutching your waist

You are waves to the ocean, spark to the flame

The sweet love you give puts any girl to shame

These are the things that you are

You are grace under fire in all that you do

In a world full of lies you are truth absolute

These are the things that you are

You've got this sweet way of whisperin' to me

And I feel like I'm more than I am

And I know your secrets, all your thoughts and your dreams

There's so much I understand about you

I'm so lucky, to have you right next to me

You are waves to the ocean, spark to the flame

Sweet love you give puts any girl to shame

These are the things that you are

You are grace under fire, in all that you do

In a world full of lies, you are truth absolute

These are the things that you are

I want to sail on the breath you exhale

And journey to places that live in my dreams

With you as our guide and God on our side

You see the world as it's meant to be seen

Let the drifter in me get lost on the sea of your touch
