Running through the forest
I think of my love
What she means to me
And what I'd do for her

I'd give up blood
Go on national TV
I don't think there's anything
I wouldn't do

But as I come into the clearing  
I think of one thing
As a bird swoops by
And my heart follows its soft song

I will not take this from her
This life this wonder
It's all there for her to take
But why does she choose me?

I run through the night
Following a familiar path
I find myself outside her window
Wondering if I'm allowed in

I have almost decided
When I stop and look out
Upon the shimmering night
Thinking maybe this isn't so bad

When I reach her bed  
She is still fast asleep
In her own little dream world
And I hope I'm with her there

As the first light
Spills over her face
I am still unsure
About what is best for her

For I know if I change her
I will be taking so much away
But if I leave her unprotected
What will happen then

But it does not need to be decided now
It can wait another day
Because as her soft eyes flutter open
I know I am the first thing she sees
