I want to live for us
By Michelle Morris

I want to live for us
To make a Life together
I want to feel your touch
Know our Souls are entwined forever
Even though it's complicated
Even though we're on opposite sides
We can make it work as one
Sharing this Journey for all Time
No more playing by the rules
No more lies and playing our roles
We'll live this relationship honestly
We'll be open and free and bold
I want to live for us
The cost apart is far too high
So take my hand and leap into the unknown
Our Love will help us fly
