Skin and Bones

I used to dream about the heroes of stories
 As life became an endless night
 When hope was gone you resurrected my spirit
 Brought me from darkness into light
 I can sense a storm is coming
 Anchoring you to me
 Far beneath my skin and bones
 I harbor my divided soul
 My greatest source of strength
 Might be my downfall
 But love was not a choice to me
 I held my breath and took a leap
 And when I lose myself
 You help me stand so tall
 I listen closely and hear sweet strains of music
 I'm captured in a reverie
 Through all these years you've been my quiet salvation
 Reflecting who I want to be
 Please for my sake no more talk of
 Blessings and curses tonight
 Far beneath my skin and bones
 I harbor my divided soul
 My greatest source of strength might be my downfall
 But love was not a choice for me
 I held my breath and took a leap
 When I lose myself
 You help me stand so tall
 Standing in silence we look out at the water
 Amazed how much the world has changed
 I see behind your eyes such wisdom and sorrow
 You're wondering if we're still the same
 I felt more love than I could
 Give in just one lifetime
 Far beneath my skin and bones
 I safekeep our united souls
 My greatest source of strength is not my downfall
 Because love was not a choice for me
 I held your hand and took a leap
 I'll never lose myself
 You help me stand so tall
