Photo 14

Waking early, the world around me seems newly made

You lie right next to me, your neck's a memory that won't soon fade

The light it seeps through, illuminates you, I draw the shade

The outside world will have to wait

Cause the way you lingered in my heart

Like a photograph into the dark

I've rubbed my eyes for months and months it seems

I would run for you, I would follow you, wherever it may lead

I would hold you and, I would tell you just, how much you mean to me

I would cry the tears prescribed

Just for loving you, and for loving you, and for loving you

But shades like shadows, only last a matter of space and time

The world enforces unfair divorces of your soul and mine

With failed devotion I hold emotions but they unwind

The wraps have slowly come undone

But I still can see you gaze at me

Your eyes defy this entropy

I'm floored like I have seen the face of God

I would run for you, I would follow you, wherever it may lead

I would hold you and, I would tell you just, how much you mean to me

I would cry the tears prescribed

Just for loving you, and for loving you, and for loving you

We're born to suffer and we put up buffers and hope for the best

We're borne downriver, hope to be delivered, from ocean death

I've heard of islands let's try to find one, it's my last request

This life is easier than it seems

And you're still asleep beside me now

With dreams I'll never figure out

And hope is worth much more than Truth for now

I would run for you, I would follow you, wherever it may lead

I would hold you and, I would tell you just, how much you mean to me

I would cry the tears prescribed

Just for loving you, and for loving you, and for loving you
