Simple Joys

I think about you a hundred times a day

I pray to God to look after you

You are every second of every hour

You are everything I do

You are the sunshine in the morning

The soothing calm in the night

Though life can throw bricks and spite

Just the thought of you makes everything all right

I will tell you everyday

How beautiful you are

And I will make you feel my love

No matter how near or far

My life has forever changed

Since the day we first met

If you would just stay beside me

My life would be set

You are joy in my world

You are everything I desire

I will always look after you

I promise I will never tire

I pray this would last forever

I pray you will always see

You and I are meant to be

You are everything to me

Day & night

Make no mistake

You don't see me

But I'm always with you

In my thoughts

In all these songs

Always a prayer sent

With each new day

There's a reason

A smile I can't escape

Joy out of its bounds

All because of you

We don't need lines

No grand gestures

No walks under the moonlight

Just you and me

And you being you

As it has always been

You are all I see

But now I finally see you

For all that you really are

And you are so beautiful

No idea

I'm sorry dear if I can't tell you

The whispers of my soul

But they open floodgates

To feelings that I can not control

I'm sorry if I leave you

Wondering without a clue

But babe know for certain

These words are all for you

I'm sorry if I keep some secrets

Details I seem to miss

But darling when it falls together

A perfect night, a perfect kiss

So I'm sorry, please forgive me

One day I swear you'll see

That all of this was simply leading

To what was always meant to be

Never too late

Running in the rain

Your hand in mine

Caught such beautiful madness

Caught between the lines

Though fate can take us down

It doesn't matter you see

The disappointment dissipates

As long as you're with me

A vision in the passenger seat

The trees they gently sway

Tears fall, pool, and cloud

But we sweep them all away

And here you are finally

It's just me and you

Could this be the beginning

Please say that this is true

You don't need to recover

I know it may seem tough

But this is all that matters

Let the moment be enough

We'll see it all together

With a soundtrack built for two

In my arms I promise

I will look after you

Muse

I lurk in the darkness,

Feed on pain

Emotions stir my soul

Longing is the air I breathe

Suffering is my strength

And you, you are the oppressor

You are my muse

In the pain and tragedy

Set forth by your whims

I find that I am grateful

You stir my soul,

Tempest in my heart

In this misery, I feel most alive

For I know that love lives

In glory and hopefulness, it blooms

You make me hope against hope

I learn to love

Where no love is to be found

Written down

Another day, another chance

Rest asured in this romance

I can see it in your eyes

A million hopes, a million sighs

Never will we fall from grace

Everything in its place

Beyond the now

Even through the questions

We know somehow

In our best intentions

That we were meant to be

However far or late

My faith is strong in you and me

Everyone knows it is our fate

Come back to me

Choices aren't always good

You end up with so many coulds and shoulds

A hundred and one yeses or nos

An endless cycle of tos and fros

In the confusion I'm sure you'll see

You're better off coming back to me

Life's too short to live off of mistakes

We're defined by the choices that we make

You could feel all right in his embrace

But you know you could be in a much better place

You need to be all you can be

You're better off coming back to me

I know the thought has crossed your mind

You know the answer's not that hard to find

Don't worry about the past, it's done

Time will always lead to the right decision

And it will strike you in its simplicity

You're better off coming back to me

Do you even know where you're going?

I don't want to see your heart breaking

It's a crazy complicated life

There's still a destiny we can contrive

Come back to me

Just come back to me
