"I would rather die living, than live dying"

Reach

Last time i talked to you
You were beautiful
And i felt gray
remembering your eyes
of yesterday

As you walked away
I felt your eyes on me
One more time
I turned to watch you
I always loved your grace

I hope you remember me
When you need some light
Should you have a dark day

You know where i will be
 in those three stars
Looking down on you
Never out of reach

All we are will always be
I'll be with you
You will be with me

I will come back for you someday
I dont have to worry 
You dont have to wait
I will come for you 
You will fall into me


The letter

I got the letter
stepping off a plane
then I knew
things would never be
the same

As I read your words
about the pain
in all the love
the words we said

Now i'm farther from you
Farther than i've ever been
Though we're miles apart
Across the ocean between us
You are with me in my heart

Though i feel fallen apart
I'm holding on to you
Like you said in your letter
Those were the days
never better

I've waited for years
To hear you say
for the words to clear the way
It gave me light in my darkness
If i could see you now
Everything would be alright

Through the tears in my eyes
I imagine you again
Looking in my eyes like no other
With every breath
I want to be back there

Think of me when i fly
Inside the butterflies by your side
When the wind blows the trees
Think of me when your heart is light
When you feel free

I'm going to love you
Til the day i die
Believe me when i say
I will always find a way
To be with you
Until every tree by the ocean
Fades away

I hear the silence
I'm near the circle
where it ends

I catch my breath
to breathe my mind clear
I cant take your hands
never again I fear

I'm never near the surface
always at both ends
I want to reach you
to feel yesterday over

I didn't care
about ever after
until you were here

I hear the silence
the ocean in the night
the waves coming closer
like every choice I made

I choose to wait
if you would understand
while I mourn the fragile thing
I want you to know
