You'll always be two steps ahead
In this game called 'the chase'
You'll always cross the finish line first
Because to you, love's just a race
You'll hold my heart
You've already won
Because you took off running
Before I knew it had even begun
Title is a reference to a line in the song "Your Heart Is An Empty Room" by Death Cab For Cutie.

Violet
i keep crying
my eyes sting
from the salt
no i don't cut
anymore
but i cry
i cry
bitter tears
all of them
i cried for you
From old to new
From new to old
Over the ages
Different stories told

Through song, through story
Through poems unfold
The victories and the sorrows
Of a life untold

Some are written
For all to see
Others kept away
For ones heart to keep

Those stories, those songs
The poems all  tell
The feelings and emotions
Hidden within ourselves

Missing you makes me happy
Because the night I spent with you
Woke up a part of me
That I thought was dead and gone.
If I miss you forever
I will still remember your sleeping face
And I will still
Smile.
