Before we met each other
We would stand on the bank
Skipping rocks on top of the water
Watching them sink to the bottom.
We would wade out ankle deep
Where it was shallow
And dream about meeting a true lover
From time to time we would venture
Far enough out to get soaked
But never over our heads
We would sit and throw sticks
While we pondered love and the meaning of it
We would get mad and try to drown ourselves under
Then the day we met and dared each other
To jump in the deepest part of the water
I'm pretty sure you dove first
But you called to me from the bottom
And I couldn't help but follow
I couldn't let you hold your breath forever
So fast we swam back to the surface together
Took a deep breath of each other
As we reached the top I was your's to keep
Letting go of words cause talk is cheap
The waters so gentle and calm
Until the storms began
So many we have weathered through
But we always managed to save each other
Then one day you swam ahead of me a little further
I tried catching up but the rip tide
Caught me and pulled me farther away from you
When I finally caught back up I was so exhausted
And you were tired of waiting
Always looking back
Calling hurry up and swim faster
Now we're both stuck here
And it's still as we are just floating
But hold your breath because we're going under
And I can see the shore
I thought that's what we were heading for
Now I'm not so sure....

When you call me baby
I feel my pressure rise
My blood starts to boil
And I come alive inside

Tell me that you love me
But do you really mean it
I know you love my body
But do you love my spirit?

The way we move together
It’s like we’re meant to be
We fit together like a puzzle
I’m a lock and you’re the key

Let me hear you say it
I’m the only one for you
Know my heart can’t take it
If it isn’t true

Those long summer nights
With skin against skin
Is what plays out in my dreams
Those nights you made my world spin

But all of that means nothing
If you think I’m just a phase
Because I love you: mind, body, and soul
And will want you for the rest of my days

I ached for you last night,
and I yearned and I cried and I shaked for you last night.

I wanted nothing but to be near you,
to hear your heartbeat in your chest.

But I did not want to break you down,
or put this love to rest.

I dreamt of you lying beside me last night,
and I kissed you and I held you and I felt you last night.

I traced out the moon beams surrounding your spine,
and kissed every ligament, still hoping you're mine.

But before I could sleep, and before I could slumber,
I readied my mind and I phoned to your number.

I wanted you to come here to me,
and I wanted you to be near.

But with wanting and heartache I hung up that phone,
and I watched the blood moon appear.
