Overwhelmed
(This is really a song...)
I want to see your face as the sun comes up, as the sun goes down
Each time this world spins 'round.
I want you near me as I spend my days, when I'm breathing
And breathing out again.
I want you near me everywhere I am
And all my dreams tell me, that I need you with me
I want you near me, now.
'Cause I can't think clearly with you out of my reach
I need you near me, now.
I love the way you see me inside-out, the way you take my hand
The way you make me laugh.
You hold my heart in the palm of your hand, and all this love you give
Is truly a gift
But I never knew that love could be like this.
And all my dreams tell me, that I need you with me
I want you near me, now.
'Cause I can't think clearly with you out of my reach
I need you near me, now.
The door that let you in was a flood-gate and you overwhelmed me here
"Cause I had no defense for your love's tidal wave when you overwhelmed me here
And sometimes I get lost in amazement while you overwhelm me here
'Cause I could sit for hours listening to your breath you still overwhelm me here
Yes, you overwhelm me here
So, I want to see your face as the sun comes up, as the sun goes down
Each time this world spins 'round.
I want you near me as I spend my days, when I'm breathing
And breathing out again.
I want you near me everywhere I am
I want you near me everywhere I am
