Have you ever had just one thing that you'd give everything for?
Just this one thing, that means the world to you and more?
You'd do everything in your power, to make sure it's OK?
You'd give anything, just so it's happiness wouldn't go away?
You try your hardest, and then you try some more
You try to protect it, comfort it, but sometimes it's a closed door.
You become patient and kind and take a step back
Then you start to wonder, what is it that I lack?
Am I caring too much? Am I pushing too hard?
Am I standing too close? Or am I standing too far?
All these questions, and answers yet to come,
I'm not going to turn my back, I'm going to stand instead of run.
I'm going to be the stone, that was never there for me,
Something to hold onto, to push off of and set your dreams free
The stone that gives you ambition, and a better sight of life
The stone to keep you still, when you think you lost the fight
I want to be the best friend, to talk to and shed a tear,
I want to be the partner, to share hopes, dreams and fears.
I want to be the buddy, to laugh about a joke or two,
I want to be me, the one always there for you.
I want to be all these things, everything and more
I want to be that key, that opens and unlocks that door.
I'm trying to be content with how things are.
I'm just waiting for you to open, and keep that door a jar.
