I want to be the one
who sings you to sleep
and the first thing you see
when you wake from your dreams
I want to wrap my arms around you
when you’re feeling weak
and hold you still
until you feel at peace
I want to make it all better
with one little kiss
When you go away
I want to be what you miss
I want to leave you notes
in random places
with words of love
to fill empty spaces
I want to get in the car
and take a vacation
when neither of us knows
our final destination
I want to be the one
you tell your secrets to
and I promise, my dear
I’ll keep nothing from you
