You Are My Everything

The first song I ever wrote.

You came into my life on a rainy day
You wiped my tears and you showed me the way
Through times of trouble and times of pain
You listened to every word and never walked away
Stood right by me when things went so wrong
Held me tight and you sang me your song


You, you were my everything
You're what I'd waited for
You opened all life's doors

With you, my every breath remained
By a heart that beat your name
You were my life, you were my love


We had some good times and shared some bad
Those were the best days that I've ever had
You made me laugh and you made me cry
Knowing what it was like to really be alive
Struck in my heart was your very soul to mine
Leaving the kind of love that stands the test of time


You, you were my everything
You're what I'd waited for
You opened all life's doors

With you, my every breath remained
By a heart that beat your name
You were my life, you were my love


Now I sit here so lost and alone
Just wondering where our time has flown
How did I get here and what do I do
Can't imagine how I'll ever make it through
Tears stream down my face for a love that is gone
Beggin God for a chance to let me sing you this song


You, you are my everything
You're what I've waited for
You open all life's doors

With you, my every breath remains
my heart still beats your name
You are my life, you are my love
