Making it work is its own form of art
The creation of something alive
The love between two is a flame all its own
That you shelter from the winds of your life
You form it and feed it and do what is needed
To make sure its warm to the touch
But tend to it right and it burns through the night
When there's nothing it will be enough
'Cause
There's a lot of pain in life
If you wanna feel the light
You'll dig through the thorns and the weed
Til' the heart grows a new pair of wings
You are the first thing
That I wanna see when I wake up
Then in the evening
I'll hold your hand as I drift
If life is a gamble and love is the answer
Then everything comes with a risk
You open your heart and you put down your shield
To hold your breath
You just let someone in
They see who you are
Might kiss you on your scars
As they sift through the good and the bad
Your hearts intertwine
It starts changing your life
Something stops before something begins
Flying to what the future holds
I would like to hold you now
I'm old enough to see
There's a lot of pain in life
If you wanna feel the light
You'll dig through the thorns and the weeds
Til' the heart grows a new pair of wings
You are the first thing
That I wanna see when I wake up
Then in the evening
I'll hold your hand as I drift off
And in the mean time
I hope that you'll visit me in dreams
Then in the daytime
Lets get together and do nothing at all
You are the first thing
That I wanna see when I wake up
Then in the evening
I'll hold your hand as I drift off
And in the mean time
I hope that you'll visit me in dreams
Then in the daytime
Lets get together
And do nothing at all
