Behind You

All around my emotions flow To pain, sadness or the end Their shining lights stay aglow To make you smile again I’ll laugh to keep you going While I cry for you inside I’ll be here if you need me I’ll stand right by your side With haste my fantasies run To darkness, folly or a sin Their burning fires light the Sun With a strength I can’t comprehend I’ll close my eyes and forget reality I’ll dream for you, of summer days I’ll sleep awhile, a little longer And I’ll keep the Sun ablaze With trust I give you my heart May it be broken, twisted or bent I’ll be behind you from the start And right to the very end I’ll smile to keep you happy I’ll dream for you each night I’ll wish on every star I see And I’ll pray you’ll be all right I’ll love so you don't need to I’ll let you choose the rules You treat it like the game it should be And I’ll hope you never lose
