Thank You For Being You
I sit here and think about all that was said
About my life in general and when we’ll be wed
But confused thoughts still drift in and out
They swirl and dance in my conscience and come in and out
I think about what all that he’s told me
Fantasize about building our own Christmas tree
Raising our children in a family-filled environment
About holding you in my arms and smelling your scent
All the laughs we shared and the dreams we discussed
And how your gone and my world’s left in nothing but dust
I want to touch your skin and reassure you are there
About feeling your fingertips running through my hair
The best feeling alone is thinking of you
And being fulfilled that our dreaming is true
Lying beside you every night by your side
Not rushing through life and just letting it glide
On our days off you teaching me to work on a car
But losing sanity slowly when I think about how you are so far
You’re the other half of my brain when I can’t think
I talk to you when I am about to completely sink
I wonder sometimes if you feel the same
I wonder sometimes if I’m the one to blame
It hurts so much to know you’re not there
Stuff comes to realize how life isn’t always fair
Your gentle voice softens my beating heart
But still I know right now we’re still apart
Help me come to terms that right now I’m alone
Help me to understand that I’m not just your drone
Make me realize who you really are
And help me understand that your not really that far
Thank you for everything you’ve helped me realize
Thank you for letting me win the biggest prize
Thank you for being just you that I am proud of
Thank you for not letting me slip in the mud
Thank you for keeping my head held up so high
Thank you for finally making me try
I can’t wait until I am in the shelter of your arms
Thank you for keeping me inside your dreamy charms
Most of all thank you for all that you do
And thank you for being so wonderfully true
For that reason alone I will always keep you within my heart
Basically, for the most part, keeping me smart
