“My Song For You”
completed on 5.20.12
i see the beauty in your heart
you’re the rarest work of art
you always find a way
to give me a brighter day
all i ever wanted was to pen the lines
you use to sing yourself to sleep
the ones that keep you up all night
dreaming of a better life
when you’re sad
when you’re hurt
when you dance ’cause everything is right
when the fire inside you burns so bright
i want to be in the words you use
in the thoughts you form
helping you weather through the storm
protecting you from any bruise
i want to be your light
to make everything all right
to shield you from any pain
everything for your gain
i want to be in the ink you use
as you draw yourself a better life
one of the hands you use to boost yourself up
to be there for anything you choose
i want to be in the air you breathe
when life’s weight is crushing you
i want to be in the sunlight
guiding you out of the darkness tonight
all i ever wanted was to give you a better life
you would make the most amazing wife
’cause you always find a way
to give me a brighter day
