Catch Flight

Folder: 
2005 - 2006

We walk in the blowing wind

As the fall leaves catch flight into the winter sky

And by time we open our eyes to see again

Half our lives have passed the lives we’ve lived by

But, we’re still stuck on the pavement

Hoping somehow we’ll make it

And regain our sight and learn how to love

And, God willing, find our wings and fly

Away from the mess we’re surrounded by



Keeping warm in your sweater

I swore I saw you looking at me

And I swore I saw you believing

As your smile curled toward me

I found myself believing

The way only belief can, the moment you realize just why and who

Belief never came alive until someone peered into your eyes,  and not through



Do you feel it as strongly as I am now

Warmth filling our bodies now that that season’s gone

The ceasing of winter and the silence of sound

Now that we are the only ones

It feels like love has ever found

Giving peace that rains down

Heavy like a torrent on aired ground

Giving life to the small hopes that hung on

As all the others died thinking hope was gone

  

These are the only words I can now use

Cause it feels like love when I’m with you



I found myself believing

The way only belief can, the moment I realized just why and who

Belief never came alive until you peered into my eyes, and I knew

That the only words I could use, didn’t need to be spoken
