My wordless pursuits keep me up at night
As I discover life’s joyous delights.
And so I’ve come bearing the gift of rhyme
I’ve loved you after all this time.

The very source of my pain
Is the one thing I can’t live without.
But I’d stick around, do it all again
If you would understand what this is all about.

You’re my downfall, you knock me off my feet
In ways so unexpected I’ve no choice but concede.
In this life I thought was boredom personified
I’ve come to reveal what I always chose to hide.

You’re the light at the end of a gloomy day
The rain on my parade
And I hope in my heart you choose to stay,
For all the things in me you’ve destroyed and made.

Know that when I push you away
I am actually begging you to stay.
