You're the way you look at 4am when you've woken up for the umpteenth time,
And I don't know why, but I rub your bare chest with my cheek and hope you're alright.
You're the way I feel when you take my hand before I take yours,
And you're the speed of my heartbeat when we kiss, no matter how long it's for.

You're the way the stars seem to tell me that you love me at night,
And how even when we're fading that same love always shines.
You're the way I drink myself to sleep in thoughts of your pain,
And no matter how hard I love you, you always feel the same.

You're the sand and I'm the ocean when the tide comes in each day.
And you're the ship that promises to take me far away.
You're the salt on my lip and the sun on my back,
You're all that I am, and you're all that I lack.
