I know your heart
"like the back of my hand"
You have become
the biggest part of my plans
When I feel weak,
will you understand?
"Are you strong enough to be my man?"
These days are dark
but you're my light
You help me through
and set things right
And sometimes
I feel too weak to stand
Am I strong enough
to hold your hand?
But then I remember
who we are
You're the companion moon
to my every star
And we stay connected
Near or far
I am with you
Because of who you are

I listened to the gentle throbbing
of your heart beneath my head
As we settled into the afterglow
in the warmth of your bed
As we lie there together, just breathing
I thought to myself
how I had less of a need
for anything else
I doesn't take lots of money
to make things okay
It just takes communication
to keep my worried heart at bay
And it doesn't take diamonds
to prove ones devotion
Our love has kept us together
Despite miles or mountains or oceans
It doesn't take words
spilled from unsure mouths
Or a luxurious life
Or a big, fancy house
It will only take time
because we deserve and need it so
For my healing and for security
To honor our love and let it grow
Time to create memories
that we will look back on and sigh
Time to experience and enjoy each other
and more time to laugh until we cry

It was a dark and stormy night
Oceans of tears I didn't want you to taste
My face wet with confusion and fright
Waking you from your slumber in haste
I kept thinking that his ship was sailing
While I'm here simply sinking
As the life I built drifted away
Was I letting myself drown
Was I letting you down?
But the truth is that my saving grace
Is your loving touch and your beautiful face
We just need to be alone
Someplace safe where we can be at home
You've set us upon a course
That leaves little room for remorse
I just need to float away with you
A little boat to spend the days with you
To seek the bliss we are sure to find
Once I can rest my troubled mind
