the strands in your eyes that color them
wonderful
stop me and steal my breath
and emeralds from mountains thrust toward the sky
never revealing their depth
tell me that we belong together
dress it up with the trappings of love
i'll be captivated
i'll hang from your lips
instead of the gallows of heartache that
hang from above
i'll be your crying shoulder
i'll be love's suicide
i'll be better when i'm older
i'll be the greatest fan of your life
and rain falls angry on the tin roof
as we lie awake in my bed
you're my survival
you're my living proof
my love is alive - not dead
tell me what we belong together
dress it up with the trappings of love
and i've dropped out
i've burned up
i've fought my way back from the dead
i've turned in, turned on
remembered the things that you said
it doesn't matter where you go in life
what you do or how much you have
it's who you have
beside you...
i'm so glad i have you..
