Gravity

You're the gravity in my world
That keeps me anchored down
When my life spins out of control
You pull me to the ground.

Sometimes I get lost
And I can't find my way
Then you pull me in close
And tell me it's okay.

Your arms are like home
As you pull me in tight
You make me feel safe
With  you I am alright.

This isn't always easy
Sometimes I make it hard
I need to feel truly safe
Before I let down my guard.

but if you keep holding me tight
I know we'll make it through
Everything is going to be alright
Because I know that I'll have you.
