What Matters Most
What Matters Most
Shadows linger in the living-room
It feels that something is watching over me
I like the way you make me smile...it wipes away the gloom
It sends those shadows far away at sea
Look around and you'll see
That you belong with me
Free your mind from rue
Potential is what I see in you
Ch: I just happened to bump into you - it was perfect like butter and toast
I had a temporary high and then, I greet grief...I know it's brief...
But, it makes me stop breathing and all hope seems to fade away like a ghost
Feeling dumb and wasting time...time that I should have used up for relief
Sounds like you focus too hard on worries than on what matters most
What matters most
What matters most is that you and I are meant to be together in unity
Smile, baby, smile for a little while now
You shine triumphantly somehow
Leaving so soon? No, I don't think so
So you say that you're going with the flow
Look around and you'll be
With me and all that's inside of me
This love in my heart beats on with unique passion constantly...rapidly...
It's like the dawn and the dusk colliding with each other in serenity
Ch
If I fall, would you be right next to me?
If I lose my grip, will you build me up? For I'm Mr. Lonely and you are something else I see
Would you catch me and pick me off my feet?
I noticed that you're as golden as wheat
If I hug you, would you accept my hugs?
I'm getting tired of throwing our uncertainties under dusty rugs
Chx2
Mirror my depression that traps me in gloom
It feels that I'm shielded by the strength of our vitality
Wrapped up in your clever play on words that drives away doom that leads us to our tomb
Your smile, though I don't see it, I feel it uplifting my spirits that were dampened by misery...
I'm closer to the finish line,
I can feel it just fine
Cure me from my disease of envy that's as bittersweet as red wine
Determined to overcome this for you alone...my brave love of mine
