You Got What I Need
Alone on an island of my own design
Isolation and desperation seem just fine.
I hear a voice call out and look up from these broken rocks
Over these empty shores I see a smile that makes my heart stop.
Suddenly I'm not as alone as I thought
You're what I need, you're all I've got.
Spending time disrupting the silence
Our laughs echo and we feel like giants.
Near the fireside, on the sand we lie
You stare up at the stars, I see them in your eye.
You make me laugh, you hold me when I cry
You expand my horizons, you make my doubts die
Down on the ground, where I feel so alone
You take me by the hand, in the clouds you roam.
