Soft and Bright and Beautiful

A love song for a special sort of love

Dear may I write you a love song?

cause I love you

but I love you anyway

and these words that I keep in my pockets

Now have a reason

they are calling to be sung

 Chrous: and I thought we'd break each other

and maybe we will

but I feel bright and, warm and  beautiful

watching you lay still

and this is not simply attraction

passing storefronts and displays

this is soft and bright and beautiful

and I hope it stays that way

your tired eyes

are just like

the shadows before dawn

for all the light

spills over, 

cascading from your yawn

and we are not this

we are more than

all of the pain

we are soft and bright and beautiful

 and I hope we stay that way

and only time will tell it all

 only God picks us up when we fall

yet this is something more...

I never wrote someone a love song before

Dear, can we hold onto this forever?

for we both know, 

we're so nieve

and this safe, this comfort 

felt deep-rooted to the ground

can always blow away

 on the next breeze

 

Chorus:
