To Be

To Be

I want to be the breeze that gently touches your face
the kiss that lingers on your lips silently leaving no trace
to be the sweetest melodies in your heart that sings the song
to be that quiet whisper you hear from twilight until dawn

To be the sound of your heartbeat strong as the ocean's tide
like the treasures of the deep of what is hidden inside
to be your lighthouse your harbor in life's storms
the one you could come home to and be safe in my arms

To be the one in your dreams when darkness falls
the first name on your lips as the sunrise calls
to be that shining star that dances across your mind
to be that path you take no matter where it may wind

To be the crimson shadow ever hovering on your shoulder
to be the one who loves you gently, sweetly, like no other
to be that feathered touch to caress you, hold your hands
to be the one who inspires you to fall softly into passion's dance

To be the flames so hot as the embers of a fire
to be the one that you crave the only one you desire
to be all that I can every mountain I will climb
if it's only to be your friend I'll love you till the end of time
