They say that when you're young, you'll never know love
Until it takes pieces of you, and leaves you bleeding and broken
I don't claim to know anything more
Than I did the day before
But I do know that when you're here the world seems brighter
I feel like a better person, more whole, more alive
One thing I've learned is that true happiness is rare
And if you find it you should never let it go, that's what they always say
They also say that if it's meant to be, it will be
I'm not saying we're star-crossed, no I don't believe that at all
But what I do believe is that when you're near me, I have hope
The future is bearable
You aren't the only reason for me to live
But you're one of the most important
It seems like, as we get older, that it's more and more of a battle
To love someone properly
I think that we have different soulmates for different points in our lives
And that our souls can recognize it's counterpart in another
The truth is
I lost faith in love, but you're starting to change my mind
I'm not saying we'll be together forever, but I certainly hope that you stay with me for a long, long time
Because I want to show you that it is possible to love someone
Completely, and that someone out there will treat you right
You once told me that I was the only one that didn't do you wrong, I was just scared
And after all this time, it's like nothings' changed
Maybe there's a reason, why I went looking for you
After years of pretending you didn't exist
We'll never know for sure, but, I'm in it for the long haul
So if you'll have me
Let's make our own infinity
Make something beautiful in this ugly world
Let me show you all the love I've got to give.
