Sometimes I wish
I could fit in
sit up right
and follow the
strait and narrow

But when she loves me
I feel like I'm somewhere safe
the whole world could
all fall away
and I wouldn't care
if I were in her arms

With her I'm happy
and even the worst days
I can push through
because I have her
by my side
to pull me up
when I fall down

And I'll do the same for her
whether the sun is shining
or the nightingale sings
I'll be there to wipe her tears
and hold her through it all
whispered promises of
a better tomorrow

We've both lost
we've both been hurt
we've both broken
but when she kisses me
I think I might've found
a god who loves me

Tracing her scars
while she sleeps next to me
and I know that we're safe
it's not perfect
and I don't think it ever will be
but we'll push through

Because I want to
spend every night
and wake each day
to the same soft smile
of my favorite
