I walked through a desert

The sand burned my feet

Tried to find the oasis

Got myself in too deep



I swam an ocean end to end

The water soaked me to the bone

Tried to grab onto some land

And still found myself alone



Cause there were stars and skies

And lies in your eyes

There was pain and truth

Hidden in you

And you didn't tell me that

You needed me to be

A little more than I seemed



I climbed a mountain

The snow in my eyes

Tried to reach the summit

Before I laid down to die



All for you

End to end

Friend of a friend

Love of my life

A reason to try



I sat alone

The silence made me feel

Tried to remember you

Learned how to deal



Cause I saw stars and skies

In your eyes

And there was pain and truth

Deep within you

I should have told you that

I needed you to know

A little more than I could ever show
