something happened on that day
something unexpected took place
changing my life
the moment I said yes...
pouring over my head
running over my body
such a strange feeling has
come over me
unable to resist
nowhere to hide
I place walls up to prevent the
inevitable...
with my doors locked
you manage to find a way in..
breaking down these walls
with your words
you continue to build me
up with your convictions...
making a romantic lost
find his way back home...
I felt like a piece of me died
a long time ago...
I paid my respects in order
to accept what I thought was
resting in peace
only to have you make me
realize it was only sleeping
with three words from your soul
it awakened with a passion
this love I feel
began to grow that day
blossoming to become something
beautiful...
you cut away the thorns that
once cut my flesh
pierced my heart
making me part of the living dead
I lived with no heart to share
no words to voice my true emotion...
it stayed buried amongst the rubble
amidst the debris where it's been
for two years past...
your strength in us
breaks through to my hidden treasure
fighting to free itself from the
prison its lived for so long...
patience is the key to the lock
to my heart....
you've already unlocked the truth
within me
so baby please
be patient with me
truth passes from my lips
to yours
yours to mine
this connection we have is
real...
those demons of the past
attempt to tear me apart
to finish off what was
left behind...
you give me the strength
to overcome
you inspire me
motivate me...
so have no fear
for this love I have for you is real
you are the mural that I paint upon
the words in my book
you are a part of my life
embedded in my soul
penetrating my mind
you've captured my heart
I turn my back
to the abyss of the unknown
and with tears in my eyes
joy in my heart
I fall backwards over the edge
into the safest place to be
with you...
I love you...
