among the pines you stood against the firelight
with heavy heart i focused on your eyes that night
and under my own i hid a thousand blurring stars
i was reminded i could never leave your arms
your gentle gaze had seemed so distant from my own
each passing thought was of you as i dreamed alone
but since you have loved me i want only to be near
and try hard to hold you tight enough to keep you here
in your voice i hear the blood beneath my skin
and i feel purpose where my sorrow once had been
and i see you every time i look within
and i can’t believe that you are mine
and as you walk you mesmerize me with your grace
and love is all i feel as i float around your space
and when you look at me i am ice in your warm hands
and how you can love me i will never understand
i know it’s hard to put up with my tired words
and i may not be everything that you deserve
but your name’s the only word i never tire of
cause you are the one who showed me i deserve to love
in your voice i hear the blood beneath my skin
and i feel everything where nothing once had been
and i see you every time i look within
and i can’t believe that you are mine
