I've known your sorry epitome
                        And I want to make it mine
No I want to abolish it
                       And replace it with vibrant memories
Ones that you can breathe in
                      And relish in
Draining all the sad sappy nonsense
                       And giving you something so real and true
Pure in all delinquent ways
                       And rough like a bright tear drop
I'm going to grasp your love
                       And never let it go
I'm going to harness the overwhelming tide somehow I promise
                      And you can have my hope of love which will soon come
I will not make you whole and blemish free
                      And you can never complete me
We can just be there for the chance to glimpse it's changing
                      And to shield it from all harm
It will making going our separate ways easy,  flawless
                      And we will seek the ways together, and singular
Because you cannot love another until you love yourself
                      And when you do, dreams are sure to burst
Into pockets of dripping sunshine
                      And I will be there waiting for you
Love will become easy when whole and understanding
