You


You came into my life unexpected You brought me truth resurrected A broken fool, I was A falling stone; lost cause You gave me hope You showed me love You never took no, wouldn't let go You never gave up Uncovering dust You saw me for who I was You learned my heart You learned my pain You know the truth, all the places I've been You've seen my worst You've seen my best My broken heart; no sleep, again Me on the run Running from me I've never found love where it was supposed to be You parachuted in like superman Saw a different story Than the one I had And saved me from my hell You saved me from myself You took the weeds And planted seeds for me to grow You climbed the mountain All these years, I've climbed alone And you're the one I hope I'll never lose Cause you see my dreams You see my truth My light, my hope to be again My solid ground My one true friend This devil in me Will not win With you around To hold my hand You forged a bond And built a trust, I can't explain You unveiled the hurt, I was afraid to bleed My heart is healing, my lungs are free. I found the house where I can breathe. I found you, no, you found me These stone walls cost me everything Until you came along And knocked them down, undoubtedly, you cleared the wreck No one dared to see The one that was doused in gasoline And as the fire burned, And the world turned it's cheek You were the angel who loved me through the storm Through my war You loved me for me
