I was finally home
Our fingers laced together like the strings on our shoes
It was the reward we had earned
For the days spent paying our dues
You showed me what your life was
And I took it all in like a child at Disney
I was overwhelmed by memories I didn't own
We enjoyed each other's company blissfully
Just you and I, me and you
We drove into the night
While love songs filled our ears
I whispered a silent prayer as my heart took flight
*"Let it last,
Let us be forever
Cause I've found happiness on Earth
Since we've been together"*
The time we had was short
But that was all it took
I had found the perfect life
Your soul had overcome me, down to the smallest cranny and nook
That's why I was crushed by sadness when I left
The bond between us was being wrought
And though it was the purest pain I had ever felt,
I stayed strong because you were my every thought.
Now I close my eyes and see your face
My future is reflected in your gaze,
Time and space are trying to tear us apart
But we have each other, and we'll make it through the maze.
