arise

looking back at me        
my heart breaks        
with hind sight i can see        
all my mistakes        
i was blind and in a hurry        
stubborn as a mule        
gave your mind reasons to worry        
and i was such a fool        
i see the good times we had        
they were great        
but then i see the bad        
i realized way to late        
sticks and stones didnt break your bones        
but they broke our bond          
ive had lots of time alone          
to think since youve been gone        
         
time flys by so fast          
i dont wanna waste it        
dwelling on the past          
so i finally faced it        
we both walked away        
 we both let it fall apart        
but i cant spend another day        
chaining up my heart        
         
         
days turn into weeks          
and years fly by          
we dont speak        
and the tears run dry        
and then one day right of of thin air        
i looked up and your standing there        
smile on your face and that hypnotic stare
surrounded by sun rays with the wind in your hair        
my heart started pumping and something awoke
the chest was thumping and what was broke
began to heal and after so long i could feel
       
         
we have a choice          
we can listen to foolish pride        
or give the heart a voice        
to tell the truth inside        
im ready for forgiving          
im done leaning on that crutch          
i wanna share my whole life living        
with the one i love so much...        
         
life makes lovers breakup        
but wisdom helps lovers make up        
i was lost in space without you there        
and i dont wanna waste the time we have to share        
i wanna look back one day and see          
we made it through        
i wanna look back and me          
always loving you          
because i do.          
i dont wanna be a lonely ghost        
i dont wanna live full of regret        
because i learned what matters most        
and i will not forget        
i just want to build a life around my beautiful wife
and watch our children grow until we have to watch them go
gracefully grow older with your your head on my shoulder       
         
ill always be your champion and youll always be my prize        
and i will live forever in that heaven in your eyes.
