The first summer we spent together
Is one I'll never forget
We weren't looking for each other
Just looking for an escape from the messes
We thought we made
And it's funny now
we can almost see who we are suppose to be
Those late summers we spent,
staying up all night talking
I'd ask " do you think we'll make it?"
You'd say "I'm sure of it because you give me hope"

You still have all of my heart
There's too many times I have to say
I could have been better and stronger for you and me
Because I want you always to feel okay
and I hope you always believe with me
Let people talk and talk
Let them say what they want
We will laugh at their thoughts
Because they don't know what we've got

Every year that goes by, a year older we become
How crazy is it to think that...
Someone could waste their whole life, helplessly,
Just patiently waiting for a love like you and me?
I've been waiting my whole life
For someone to save me,
Bless your beautiful heart

Is it naive to make plans that seem so far away?
There's a reason I feel this way,
You're sleeping alone,
and I'm wide awake
When you dream of me tonight, keep me close to where you are
Lay me down,
And tell me everything will be alright,
Β Β This could mean everything or nothing at all
You take what is real and
I'll give you my all

Let's not wait, let's love right now,
here where we lie,
Outstretched to wonder why we don't belong here
You deserve so much more,
so I'll give until I'm all gone

Forever I know your face
And ever take my place here by your side,
Like a ghost into the night,
I'll be the shadow at your door,
I'll be the moth into your light,
Even though you deserve much more
Thunder storms will never shake us
Lay me down, kiss me
like I am your only true friend
Because my love for you knows
not of a summer's end
