In Due Time

It seems as though

you're the critical catalyst

to all that I do

I'm standing and breathing

One name on my last breath

Falling out of the blue

Take the weight from my chest

And let the rest all subside

To tell the truth

It's unclear to me why I'm alive

But by you I'm mystified,

petrified, starry-eyed

by all that you do

You make me want to

Breathe again

Take you in hand and,

Stand beside,

The shores, the deserts, the cliffs

Anywhere under the sky

With you everything is all in due time

You make me want you

I'll live wholly

Breathe in slowly

Drag feet only

To keep step with you

You took my hand and

Pulled me down to your eyes

Sat there so still I never realized

You were weaving

Your arms through mine

They all screamed out

But I never heard

You whisper, I recite every word

I remember you said:

I'll need you when I'm dead and gone

I need you while I'm here

I need you when I'm far away

As I need you when I'm near

Of all fears made everyday

Only one thing rings clear

In losing you, the world disappears

It seems as though

you're the critical catalyst

to all that I do

I'm standing and breathing

One name on my last breath

Falling out of the blue

Take the weight from my chest

And let the rest all subside

To tell the truth

It's unclear why I'm alive

But by you I'm mystified,

petrified, starry-eyed

by all that you do

You make me want to

Breathe again

Take you in hand and,

Stand beside,

The shores, the deserts, the cliffs

Anywhere under the sky

With you everything is all in due time
