As I hold your body close to mine
And feel your steady heartbeat
I know what all I want to say
But I'm unable to make the words meet
All these thoughts running through my mind
I wish that I could speak
I want to tell what I hold inside
I wish I wasn't so weak
My world was once cold and grey
Pain around every bend
I tried all that I could
To get my soul to mend
Slowly drowning in the tears
That I would cry each night
Want to just wither away
Wanting to give up this fight
Then hearing all you had to say
Seeing all you've shown
Brought me to a better place
That I've never truly known
Now I can see each step I take
And where I want to go
And I hope that you can see
Just how I need you so
