Streaks of sunlight make your eyes ever so blue,
Like oceans lit by morning’s grace.
I wish I had eyes like that—
Eyes that can capture,
And never let them drift laway.
They hold me still,
Right where you want me.

I’m falling—
Uncertain, unconscious,
No map, no anchor,
No promise that the chute will open.
But still, I fall.
I fall for you.
And somehow, that fall feels like flying.

Help me find solace in the storm.
Be the calm when the thunder grows close.
Shelter me when the rain won’t stop—
When skies crack open and shadows swell.
Just stare out with me into the grey,
And hold me like you'll never let me go.

If I break, let it be in your arms.
If I fade, let me fade beside you.
And if I soar—
Let it be because you believed I could.
