Where I'Ll Be
We drank tea, or was it hot chocolate?
You brushed the hair out of my eyes.
You whispered: "friends, like us, we've got it good."
That night we met, my mouth said, “Nice to meet you.”
my heart said, “Oh, I’ve found you.”
We drove for less than an hour
To a spot you claimed as your own.
There we sat by the edge
Encased by the light from the moon,
if you were to ask me what was on my mind
my response would be “only of you”.
No words needed to be spoken
The beating of my heart was all I heard
something so strong shouldn't make me this weak,
my gaze casts out over the water
before I settle on your face,
I've never seen the color beautiful
until I looked into your eyes.
If everything were to change
everything would fade,
still I would not break the bond we've made.
If you find yourself lost, confused
Not sure of which path to choose,
Look down to your chest, a little to the left
That’s where I’ll always be.
Innocents watched by Mother Nature
Electricity ran through my veins
Egged on trees around us, the wind carrying our ways.
I screamed it in my head, because I wouldn’t to your face
When I looked into your eyes you dared to stare right back
I should have whispered, "Hi, I'm your other half."
Fall turned into winter when the ground began to freeze
Racing down the slopes, our bodies felt the breeze.
My face was flushed from the drinks
little did you know
Thoughts of you made me blush,
But I couldn’t let it show
a dirty mind quickly turned pure
as your shoulder warped into a pillow
one hand on the steering wheel
the other around my back.
my eyes slowly close I let myself go
Listening to Colbie sung softly in my ear
Congratulations you broke me down
Taking away my fears.
If everything were to change
everything would fade,
still I would not break the bond we've made.
If you find yourself lost, confused
Not sure of which path to choose,
Look down to your chest, a little to the left
That’s where I’ll always be.
My heart is your piñata
A few blows it has received,
Better yet its pin the tail on the donkey
Where I placed my heart on your sleeve.
As time wore on
The muscle slowly faded
Leaving just a mark,
But all these moments
Make up a story
ours is simply at the start.
When you find yourself lost, confused
Not sure of which path to choose,
Look down to your chest, a little to the left
You will always find me.
