(Verse 1)
To the world out there, you’re just one face
A shadow moving through a crowded place
But to this one heart, you are the sphere
The gravity that holds me here.
We didn’t choose to fall, we didn’t write the line
Fate just took your hand and placed it into mine
You were just a man, passing through the view
Until the moment that I fell into you.
(Chorus)
And I love you, you who stole the beat
From a heart that was incomplete
I love you with the breath I take,
With every rule I had to break.
If winter brings the snow, and summer brings the sun
You are the lifetime gift, the only one.
More than all the words that lovers ever write
You are my day, you are my night.
(Verse 2)
There’s a silence here that words can’t define
No dictionary holds a love like yours and mine.
Your image is engraved beneath my heavy eyes
The only light I see when the sunlight dies.
Your hands embrace my own, your whispers in my ear
Are the only sounds I ever want to hear.
I used to see a teacher, a stranger, a friend
Now you are the beginning, and you are the end.
(Bridge)
How can I repent for something this true?
If my heart belongs entirely to you?
I’ll pray for my mistakes, I’ll repent for every sin
But I’ll never say sorry for letting you in.
I asked you once, "What is life without me near?"
You smiled and you whispered, so soft and so clear:
"Who told you I am living when you are away?
I’m just waiting for the night to turn back into day."
(Outro)
If I could take the ink and splash it on the sky
I’d write your name on the moon so high.
Seventy kilometers, or a world apart
Can distance separate a single beating heart?
We are united.
We are united.
You are the gift... of a lifetime.
