On the mountain top blinded in white
I cannot see a thing
Nothing but trees are in sight
Trapped in this cave
The only other eyes I met with are hers

Stuck inside this mountain covered in its bandage
Why am I still alive?
Stuck in this freezing cold
Waiting for salvation
I always wanted a moment alone with her
But this is not what I saw

Time is ticking faster
But cold makes it flow no more
We are waiting for salvation
Praying for what miracles come to mind
I always tried to push for solitary
But this is not what I saw

I lay at her side
To keep what warmth was left
All to do was count each breath
And watch as it would dance in what room it held
I could feel her tears trying to burst
But the cold made it impossible
All I could do was hold her tight
This isn't how I saw this

Another grumble of the mountain and light
The bandage is gone
Melted away
But how?

No time for that
She is getting weaker, I need to keep her safe
She tells me that she cannot walk
I gotta hurry
I carried her down the mountain
Through the forests and by the river
"Please say something"
"Why did you save me?"
"To return a favor."
This isn't how I saw this

The roads finally appeared
How much time has passed?
A trucker passed us by
He must have recongnized our faces from the media
The wheels came to screeching halt
As if he had came into sudden surprise

He asked if we were the two
I confirmed and asked if he was heading our way
Not somewhere that as home
Not somewhere that was crowded
Just a place where we can get some rest without the worry
Even though we love the youth in our families
They love us a little too much to give us some rest when we had been gone for a time
This isn't how I saw this

On the ride home the driver found us something to eat
I was just fine, but she needed it the most
After the snack she caught up on the sleep she lost
This isn't how I saw this

The driver lened me his phone, so I could dial home
To let my family know
I ask to see if we could stay the night
And surprise everyone else
She didn't argue, in fact she was relieved
This isn't how I saw this

Passed through town at high noon
The driver said hope to see you soon
One more hill to climb

Up to the house I hoped to see
No one was home but me
She liked the look
But worried about how to enter
In till the jinkle settled her
Just inside I hear the barks
Of firends I have known since youth
Welcoming me and my friend into their home

She felt a little tense
But slept at the site of a comfy bed
I eased the dogs so she could sleep but efforts fell short
When the new one to the group walked in
He was surprised to see me
And asked if she was okay

"Yeah, I made sure of it"

I sent out a message with the phone telling everyone where to meet
Giving us the moonlight all alone
I join her in the bed, where she layed her head on my chest
Asking once again "Why did you save me?"
I replayed the memories and told her the truth
Nothing was left to hide
All she did was smile and whisper "Thank you"
This isn't how I saw this

Later that night we snuck outside to watch the stars
I took one look at her, and saw them dancing in her eyes
She looked at me and smiled
Then after all this time
She leaned forward for the kiss


This is how I saw this
