Waking early, the world around me seems newly made
You lie right next to me, your neck's a memory that 
won't soon fade
The light it seeps through, illuminates you, I draw the 
shade
The outside world will have to wait

And the way you lingered in my heart
Like a photograph into the dark
I've rubbed my eyes for months and months it seems

I would run for you, I would follow you, wherever it 
may lead
I would hold you and, I would tell you just, how much 
you mean to me
I would cry the tears prescribed
Just for loving you, and for loving you, and for loving 
you

But shades like shadows, only last a matter of space 
and time
The world enforces unfair divorces of your soul and 
mine
With failed devotion I hold emotions but they unwind
The wraps have slowly come undone

But I still can see you gaze at me
Your eyes defy this entropy

I would run for you, I would follow you, wherever it 
may lead
I would hold you and, I would tell you just, how much 
you mean to me
I would cry the tears prescribed
Just for loving you, and for loving you, and for loving 
you

We're born to suffer and we put up buffers and hope for 
the best
We're borne downriver, hope to be delivered, from ocean 
death
I've heard of islands let's try to find one, it's my 
last request
This life is easier than it seems

And you're still asleep beside me now
With dreams I'll never figure out
And hope is worth much more than Truth for now

I would run for you, I would follow you, wherever it 
may lead
I would hold you and, I would tell you just, how much 
you mean to me
I would cry the tears prescribed
Just for loving you, and for loving you, and for loving 
you
