I will take the path of the least resistance
Keep quiet and watch you from a distance
Maybe you are only a lamppost on my road
Maybe you're meant to light up my life for good
There's no way of knowing....

I will dream about your tender touch when I'm alone
When the darkness falls and fear chills me to the bone
Because I can feel your warmth when my world is cold
Your words are candles and your heart is gold
You're my shelter when my sky is snowing.....

I can't tell if you're my man or just an illusion
A ray of freedom in my self-enforced seclusion
But I can feel a comfort in you I've never felt before
The depth of your mind and soul touches my core
For the first time, hope is glowing...

You know I'm not one to wear makeup and perfume
I'm not the girl who shines in every crowded room
I count my words in fear I may say the wrong one
I stay in the corners until the shadows are gone
And the battle is still ongoing....


My hope is that you'll know me more than I know myself
Peel the layers and see the scars I keep on a hidden shelf
Love me and believe in me when no one else would
When the chips are down, through the bad and good
Your love stands firm when the storm is blowing....


I'd give you everything I am, soul, body and heart
Love you and stand by you until death tears us apart
But for now, I will find solace in your photographs
Bask in the magic of who you are, and the innocence of your laughs

Because there's no way of knowing
Where this ship is going
So I hand it over to the Lord
He may diverge our paths or tie the cord
Time is the only way of knowing, and we will see
What fate will make of you and me.
