Because You Are My Love
You know the things that have burdened me.
Like names carved in to a tree.
I was held so tight I could barely breathe.
In that last relationship I couldn’t leave.
But with you I have finally found a home.
No leash on me and I could finally roam.
In your arms I don’t feel like I’m powerless.
Not thinking my destiny lies in the press.
Because you are my love and things aren’t heavy.
Taking Sunday rides in your blue Chevy.
Not a scar to see and no more found.
Not feeling like I was being drowned.
Because you are my love and my security is you.
And no me, is no you and that’s true.
