You’re nothing to yourself,
But you’re the world to me
My only desire,
A distant dream…
They call you a diamond in the rough
But to me you’re already a star in the sky
You seem just as far when I get lost staring into your eyes
Something so beautiful but at the same time you’re the walking picture of shadows and pain
Hidden away by your breathtaking lie of a smile
Spending every night looking up to the sky alone
While I’ve been here, waiting all the while
And yet those glistening tears still stream down your face
Losing a part of you with every caress and every kiss
Giving away a piece of yourself with every encounter and every embrace
I know, I know you’re scared but you’re just so much better than this
And I know words will never be enough
So let me show you…
Let my words soothe your aching heart
And let my actions speak louder
We can’t simply ignore this, walk away from what we’ve found here
I can make it better, take the pain away
You can close your eyes and drift to sleep,
Knowing I’ll love you just the same if not more,
The very next day
You, you don’t have to be afraid anymore
So please break down the walls you’ve built…
And let yourself fall because I’ll be there to catch you a thousand times over…
