To tell you I love you there are not enough words to express
But these thoughts of you I cannot suppress.
When I met you I was reborn
The past of perfect shame was wiped away
Now listen as the story unfolds this Valentine's Day
I was broken and betrayed my sanity was erased.
I was swallowed in darkness I was being chased
I was alone in my sea of lies; I sported wounds that I would regret
But all of this seemed so far away, the fateful day we met.
Suicide seemed the only way out of this cold hollow pit
But you reached out to me; your hand seemed to fit.
I was falling forever my cries went without help
I had no choice but to play the cards that I was dealt.
Denied of deliverance, with wounds too deep
It didn't seem as if I had much to keep
But you walked in just when my soul started to weep.
Through all my rampant chaos, you were my reality
You were the light in my darkness and forever shall it be
You stopped my mourning with one simple smile
You made me feel as if living were once again worthwhile
You helped me defeat my unruly blindness
With you love and unending kindness
You blew away the rain clouds along with the madness
You told me it would be OK, you drove away the sadness
You helped me mend my broken spirit
I know you did I can feel it
You stayed with me you didn't turn away
Like so many others of yesterday
I can feel it in my blood that I've been renewed
You were the remedy I for so long pursued.
All along you were the truth behind the tears
You were the comfort behind the fears
Your face is bound to my thoughts; your voice in my mind resonates
Your simple smile, your innocent stare is enough to captivate.
By first glimpse at you I could hear my heart pounding
It's lonely refrains resounding
Watching you from the shadows, my mind was spinning
I felt my past escape; I knew I was winning.
I knew from then on you would be my refuge when in despair
Your love was not hidden it was there
You are my saving grace, my tourniquet, and my crutch
A shoulder I can cry on, for tears and such
You are the salvation of my soul, my lullaby in tired nights
You are with me in my dreams for hours
With candy clouds and imaginary flowers
When you are around the feeling of love lingers in my heart
My soul feels empty when we are apart
You taught me there is life on the other side of the bend
I will follow you and love you till the very end
You taught me to believe that there is someone out there that cares
You taught me there is comfort behind cold stares
You taught me to breathe, and love a little more
You are the only one for me, this I am sure
When you told me you cared, and love you did send
I knew that you loved me then
And when the smiles fade and there's nothing to say
I'll be right there if you want me to stay
When you wake and there seems to be nothing to live for
Just remember I'm always here, I'll be your cure
I'll always stay because I knew you saw me somehow that day
And I am not afraid.
To hold you in my arms, to keep you in my thoughts
To hold your hand through all the problems you have bought.
My heart is a fragile thing and it's safe with you only
For you were the one who saw me when I was lonely.
When whispered forces tell you to turn out the light
Don't be afraid, I'm in your dreams tonight
That's where you'll find me
I feel what you feel; I know all your fears
I can feel your pain; I can taste it in your tears
Until my last breath, until I realize that I'm not just sleeping
Until I see that raptured light, until I'm not breathing
I'll stay with you, till the end of time
Don't ever forget this story, my valentine.
