I cannot question
The things that I know
I saw you that night
With the stars shining through
I knew there was nothing,
No nothing
That I wouldn't do.
Under the moon
The stars shining bright
The fire it sparked
All the little lights
In you eyes and my heart
It melted, it melted
For you.
I wanted to tell you
The things that I felt
I could say nothing
My words fell apart
As we stood in the night
With the stars in your eyes
And I knew
Every time
I tried to speak true
I knew that I'd choke
On the words
Again and again
I tried
But nothing came through
I wish I could find
A way to your heart.
I left my own laying
Alone in the dark
All of the parts on the floor
On the ground, in the sand
At your feet.
Don't ask me why
Don't ask me how
I remember the way
Your smile turned around
And my world went black
When I heard I was
Dead to you.
You thought I'd betrayed you
A stab in the back,
When you heard all the words
They could never take back,
And you thought I had joined them
Against you
And broken your heart.
You found out the truth,
I'd stood by your name,
I'd had your back,
When I faced the flame,
And I'd never again
Let you doubt
Who I'd become.
Don't mind the past
Don't look behind
Only see the one standing
Right here by your side
Look in my eyes
And you'll see
What kind of man I am.
It's not a question,
By now you must know
That I'd give up what little
Is left of my soul
If it means that I'll be there
For you
In your times of need.
I stand by the promise
I made on that night
When the moon shone above
And we basked in her light
As long as you want me
You know
I'll stand by your side.
So come to me now
Come take my hand
We'll have a few drinks
And we'll check out the band
We'll dance by the fire
Get high
And stay up until dawn.
We'll have a few drinks
And a toke
And we'll talk until dawn.
We'll sit by the fire
Side by side,
And we'll laugh until dawn.
