You Can Be Good For Me
It would be nice
to finally have a reason to smile.
you could be my sun
in this crazy storm.
I realize you can't make things perfect.
You can't make life simpler.
but you would be a nice break from the struggle,
a temporary high before I crash back to reality.
I think I need that.
I think I can really use a distraction.
you can be the reason I smile
the reason I can breathe.
Just give me a chance,
give me a smile,
because my heart craves it
my soul thrives for it,
and my brain needs it.
