Together

I didn't write this my boyfriend did but i love it

"these past few nights have been long
but with every passing minute my love for you grows strong

we talk, we laugh, we hug and kiss
and there's nothing keeping me from this

this one true beauty that occupies my mind
deep inside i feel and i find
that with each passing moment, each striving breath

you say you love me too, and that i can see
you say you love me, but how can that be?
i look into your eyes and i see a beautiful girl
one with dark hair and fair skin
but do these things define the person within?

i look harder and try to find the person inside
i dig through all the baggage, and all the strife of years gone by
and leave it all behind, and finally i find the sweet girl inside

she looks at me with eyes of fire, grabs my hand and holds it tight
i squeeze gently out of fright
scared to let go, afraid of losing her
but her eyes stare into mine and reassure

her lips press against mine, and let me know that everything will be fine

as she wraps her arms around my waist, i pull her in close and silently brush against her face
cheek to cheek we stand and hold
and the world around us grows old
but together we stay young, too happy to grow up
and together we stand holding each other up"
