With You

The water gentle and still Silent and calm The sun setting nearby I sit here with you. The sand sprawled messily for miles And you and me among them We sit and watch and I love you I sit here with you. The sailboats full of dreamers Pass by in the orange light A crab crawls by night I sit here with you. Your skin burned from the sun And new freckles appear on your face I count every single one As I sit here with you. On a blanket from decades ago Full of as many memories as years And just as many tears I think of them as I sit here with you. I clear my mind each thought Until only one remains And that’s you next to me As I sit here with you. I never want this to end But I know that it must All silver must rust I think as I sit here with you. In your arms tonight I’m feeling more than alright I feel free and right As I sit here with you. You wriggle your toes in the sand And I'm in your arms Feeling so alive when I sit here with you. Years will pass before we come back here And that blanket will be torn more each year And I fall deeper and deeper in love as I sit here As I sit here with you. I must be crazy to be falling so hard But long ago you captured my heart And I knew it was you from the start And now as I sit here with you. The waves crash down And you ask me to dance And you spin me around As I fall in love with you. And I don’t know if this will be enough But we’re getting tangled up And maybe even falling back in love As I dance with you. Your fingers in my hair You’ve melted away my every care And there’s not one moment to spare As I fall in love with you. I want to capture this moment And replay it forever I’ve never had my heart beat so fast As now when I dance with you. And the moon comes out And you still spin me around And I kiss you so proud That I fell in love with you. This moment goes sober As your eyes gloss over And you sink down lower And I fall in love with you You pull out a ring And all I can think Is you make my heart sing I’m so in love with you. You spin me around We go one more round And the sun already went down But I’m still dancing with you This has to be a dream I've never been so happy And no one’s ever loved me I think as I dance with you The moon waves goodnight And I loved tonight Let’s do it one more time So I can keep falling in love with you. Just another chance at that feeling So I can feel it everyday And feel the motion of the waves And the way it felt to fall in love with you.
