They say love finds us when we’re not looking you see me running down a barren street. Naked With scars on my chest giving it my very best all for the sake of love
You stop me ask me why I don’t seem to rest ask me about my bleeding scars upon my bleeding chest I turn and say I’m afraid of who I might meet.
I’m looking for someone to hold me to wrap their arms around me like the planets orbiting the sun my heart has too much space.
You shed a tear and say I love you that’s when I knew I had found my place.
I’ll give you everything I’ll make you my wife I want to be with you for the rest of my life
Make earthquakes in my heart Devastate my bones Tear my soul apart to restart my life with you Never let me go alone
Make my heart your home
We hold each other in the night cage I play with your hair Lock me up for safety I don’t want to be scared The monsters are under the bed
From past loves and scars You fight on my side in the war of my heart You say our love is the constellations bowing to the stars
I dream but don’t remember falling asleep Forgive me if I weep but love is a word I’ve never managed to keep Until now
Come by the window. Count the stars with me when we grow old we still won’t have caught enough for all the reasons I love you.
Love the word is a sunrise Throwing light over the world Show me a new day Where being in love is completely okay
