I am just a man with a beating heart
Gazing at the stars and
Looking for a spark
A connection between two
Those two, being me and you
As lightning strikes out in the distance in the dark

I’m sorry you had to wait
I stumbled hard right out the gate
I thought I’d never find you after all
Spent all these years building up my wall
Waiting on the perfect moment it would fall
Fall down to the ground
Rubble all around
No more nights staring at the shadows on the wall

I’m so glad you finally came along
To fill my heart with song
And now we’ll never have to be alone another night
It feels so good to be with you
Doing everything we do
Whether it’s wrong or right
Whether it’s wrong or right

I guess you still don’t know...
Since, I’m only slightly exposed
And if you were to learn who I really am
Would you still want me as your man?
Just know I’m doing the best I can

I shut my eyes to sleep
Instead, I gently weep
Thinking about all the time we spent apart
But thankful that our life’s about to start
