what a generous person with your food and your bed
and a clean towel you offer to all your friends
you're not afraid to try whatever crosses your mind
laid out all that you have: open ears and patience
I got caught up in barriers of fear
you challenged me to leap
I landed on my feet
you seek adventure, you said no pressure
I wrote a letter so I could breathe better
but
admitting the truth brought me to my knees
your brilliant mind can handle anything
anything at all
your brilliant mind
as if the sun could rise inside me
and shine a light on
what I don't recognize
one time, I woke up at your place
to your sleeping face
one time, I woke up in your bed
to you shaving your head
one time, you said some very nice things
of what you thought of me
one time, we created a masterpiece
on a leftover cardboard sheet
one time, you drew a map on me
of where you came from
one time, I admitted my feelings
and it sounded pretty dumb
well I guess I'm pretty dumb
one time, we saw the planets align
and at the same time
the moon and the sun rise
one time, you disappeared through the glass
after we said goodbye
to be at your side, I would give anything
anything at all
to be at your side
