I Love You

(album: Hard Sail - 2016)

No one else could hear me
When I was headed for the falls
But inside I was screaming out
At the top of my lungs
No one else could hear the tears roll down my face
Like rolling stones

When everyone was laughing at
The joke of the day
I was trying to teach myself
How to ride out the pain
No one shows you how to navigate through
This maze on your own

But you gave me a voice
And now I have no choice
I'm gonna live the life that I intended
And stop the one that I pretended
Break out my heart and my soul

And you gave me your word
That I would be heard
And now I never ever have to wonder
If I matter or I'm nothing
How I love you

No one else could see me hanging on by a shred
Drinking up my sorrows
Hiding out in my bed
Never did imagine I'd make silence
My very best friend

You gave me a voice
And now I have no choice
I'm gonna live the life that I intended
And stop the one that I pretended
Break out my heart and my soul

And you gave me your word
That I would be heard
And now I never ever have to wonder
If I matter or I'm nothing
How I love you

Yes, I never ever have to wonder
If I matter or I'm nothing
How I love you
