Work Text:
When I'm looking at you
And you're looking back at me,
I wonder how the world would seem
If I'd never met you
And you'd never met me…
Would I ever have learned to be free?
Would I ever have known any peace?
Would I ever have dared to dream that I could touch
something greater than I'd ever believed?
Would I have seen through the dark
how much more I could be?
Carry me, and I'll carry you
Reach for me, and I'll reach for you
Hold me forever
I promise I'll never
Let go
I'll never let you go
When I'm touching your skin
And your arms are around me,
I wonder how our lives would feel
If I'd never touched you
And you'd never touched me…
Would you ever have learned that you're safe?
Would you ever have found your place?
Would you ever have smiled the way you smile at me,
as though I am everything you need?
Would you have seen through the pain
how much more you could be?
Carry you, if you'll carry me
Reach for you, if you'll reach for me
Hold you forever
You promise you'll never
Let go
You'll never let me go
When you're here in my heart
And I'm holding you so close,
I wonder how I would have survived
If I'd never known you
And you'd never known me…
Would I even have made it this far?
Would I be a fallen star?
Would I be lost in the emptiness inside of me,
because I never learned to trust?
Would I have seen through the tears
how much more I could love?
Carry me, and I'll carry you
Live for me, and I'll live for you
Always forever
We promise to never
Let go
We'll never let us go
