Where I'Ll Be

We drank tea, or was it hot chocolate? You brushed the hair out of my eyes. You whispered: "friends, like us, we've got it good." That night we met, my mouth said, “Nice to meet you.” my heart said, “Oh, I’ve found you.” We drove for less than an hour To a spot you claimed as your own. There we sat by the edge Encased by the light from the moon, if you were to ask me what was on my mind my response would be “only of you”. No words needed to be spoken The beating of my heart was all I heard something so strong shouldn't make me this weak, my gaze casts out over the water before I settle on your face, I've never seen the color beautiful until I looked into your eyes. If everything were to change everything would fade, still I would not break the bond we've made. If you find yourself lost, confused Not sure of which path to choose, Look down to your chest, a little to the left That’s where I’ll always be. Innocents watched by Mother Nature Electricity ran through my veins Egged on trees around us, the wind carrying our ways. I screamed it in my head, because I wouldn’t to your face When I looked into your eyes you dared to stare right back I should have whispered, "Hi, I'm your other half." Fall turned into winter when the ground began to freeze Racing down the slopes, our bodies felt the breeze. My face was flushed from the drinks little did you know Thoughts of you made me blush, But I couldn’t let it show a dirty mind quickly turned pure as your shoulder warped into a pillow one hand on the steering wheel the other around my back. my eyes slowly close I let myself go Listening to Colbie sung softly in my ear Congratulations you broke me down Taking away my fears. If everything were to change everything would fade, still I would not break the bond we've made. If you find yourself lost, confused Not sure of which path to choose, Look down to your chest, a little to the left That’s where I’ll always be. My heart is your piñata A few blows it has received, Better yet its pin the tail on the donkey Where I placed my heart on your sleeve. As time wore on The muscle slowly faded Leaving just a mark, But all these moments Make up a story ours is simply at the start. When you find yourself lost, confused Not sure of which path to choose, Look down to your chest, a little to the left You will always find me.
