Come What May

(album: A Type & A Shadow - 2009)

For the longest time I thought I'd lost the best of me, but I'll be damned if I quit now and that's for sure.
All I ever wanted was for you to look at me and know I'm all yours.
Like the penguins need their wings for deep cold-water dives.
Like the earth needs the moon to keep it on course.
When you touch me I know there is purpose in my life, just know I'm all yours.
I'm a mess; I confess that I'm nothing without you.
And there's nothing I can do to prove to you I'm being honest.
Now I see, everything; and yes I've known it all along.
I was so lost but I'm back and I finally know now where my heart belongs.
I've been wondering if you could ever realize that we're growing up so fast and it's insane.
My dear our hearts have gotten good at pumping cheap new lust into our young veins.
Suddenly I understand everything I couldn't comprehend.
All this time I've spent without you by my side, I dreamt about you.
Saw you through the windows in my mind.
Carved a home for you deep down inside my chest and I never want to lose such a big part of me again.
