Forever With You

We were drawn from the weeds
We were brave like soldiers
Falling down under the pale moonlight
You were holding to me
Like a someone broken
And I couldn't tell you but
I'm telling you now
Just let me hold you while you're falling apart
Just let me hold you and we'll both fall down

Fall on me
Tell me everything you want me to be
Forever with you forever in me
Ever the same

We would stand in the wind
We were free like water
Flowing down
Under the warmth of the sun
Now it's cold and we're scared
And we've both been shaken
Hey, look at us
Man, this doesn't need to be the end
Just let me hold you while you're falling apart
Just let me hold you and we'll both fall down

Fall on me tell me everything you want me to be
Forever with you
Forever in me
Ever the same
Call on me
I'll be there for you and you'll be there for me
Forever it's you
Forever in me
Ever the same

You may need me there
To carry all your weight
But you're no burden I assure
You tide me over
With a warmth I'll not forget
But I can only give you love
Fall on me tell me everything you want me to be

Forever with you
Forever in me
Ever the same
Call on me
I'll be there for you and you'll be there for me
Forever it's you
Forever in me
Ever the same

Forever with you
Forever in me
Ever the same (Ever the same)

I have heard this song I don't know how many times on the radio. Well accually I was starting to get annoyed with it, until this week. I told you all earlier that this weekend was one of reflection. This song sums it all up. Honestly. "Just let me hold you while your falling apart." Exactly what I needed someone to do, I needed someone to let me fall apart. I needed someone to let me fall apart. "Just like a someone broken." Yep that was me, I was broken. "You may need me there to carry all your weight." Yep, I needed someone to hold on to me until I could stand up again. I don't think I've given him enough credit. Why anyone would want to pick up someone else's pieces. I feel like I've been so awful to him, I shut myself off, and he still persisted. He can put a smile on my face without trying. He makes me feel special. And I haven't done anything. Part of me wants to say this is why Ken and I ended, but I know it's not the reason, I tried to hard for that to have been it. Even though I've put him through hell, he's still standing next to me. I've never had that. No one has ever defended me, stood up for me, or stood by me. I feel like I've been fighting the world and losing. I feel like I can conqure anything now. I have never been able to just relax and feel safe, in all terms of the word, and I do now. He's been my rock, and my strength. He stood me back up when no one else wanted to, he picked up my pieces and put me back together. *How did I get that lucky?*
