Who are you?
You say you want to save me from myself
You want to be my friend
Slowly, you chip away the roughness
No judgements
I keep a special smile
I wonder if in time
© January 31, 1999
Just what do you want from me?
No one is kind to me
Just to be kind.
From the emptiness
The cold stares
From my reality
Just who do you think you are?
To show me love
Even when I push and shove
You stand firm
You're consistent in your vow
And it frightens me...
Strip away the ugliness
Revealing my insecurities
But only you could make me feel safe
In the nakedness of my soul
In such a fragile state
That I let you see through my eyes
To the windows below.
No flash of uncertainty
Could it be?
Do you truly love the real me?
Just who could you be?
I want to know...
Just for you.
I hold the gentleness
Only for you.
And when I hold you when you cry
You still trust me
Even when I don't trust myself.
This paradise I've found
Will be crushed.
I wonder if I become scared
This delicate web we've wound
Will be ripped to shreds.
Oh, how I do pray
That I will never disappoint you
Could I stand the bitterness that would follow?
The coldness in a winter's breeze?
I don't believe
I'd know how to let you go
For you've become a part of me.
