I
*Your Words*
speak to me those words
I need to hear
like a shelter
from the wind & rain
a refuge from all this pain
I want to die within your embrace
only to be reborn inside your heart
just when I thought I had found all I needed
I found I truly had nothing
and then you saw fit to shelter me
from the cold of night
from the scorch of day
from the depths of murky sea
speak to me those words
I long to hear
like a song
left incomplete
those dissonant melodies forever chime
words left unspoken
within the heart of a man
within the heart of a child
what reason or rhyme
can hold a flame to your light
you spoke those words
and they washed ashore
at the end of the world
to my island in a stream restless
I still long to hear
your song
even though I fear
this dream is at the edge of the world
I pray you still hold me
I pray you still keep me
I pray you still love me
please don't ever let me go
always listening
for you to speak your words
speak to me those words
I need to hear
like a shelter
from the wind & rain
a refuge from all this pain
I want to die within your embrace
only to be reborn inside your heart
just when I thought I had found all I needed
I found I truly had nothing
and then you saw fit to shelter me
from the cold of night
from the scorch of day
from the depths of murky sea
speak to me those words
I long to hear
like a song
left incomplete
those dissonant melodies forever chime
words left unspoken
within the heart of a man
within the heart of a child
what reason or rhyme
can hold a flame to your light
you spoke those words
and they washed ashore
at the end of the world
to my island in a stream restless
I still long to hear
your song
even though I fear
this dream is at the edge of the world
I pray you still hold me
I pray you still keep me
I pray you still love me
please don't ever let me go
always listening
for you to speak your words
