What I would give to have you in my arms
To shelter you from all of the harm
Not the harm of others but of that from yourself
I would give the world to you
If only you knew

If only you knew what you were doing
How can I make you see
Why is it so hard to comprehend they ask
They don’t understand like we do
They can’t see like we see

I want to shelter you from your own storms
I want you to feel
I want you to taste and to smell
I want life for you but not the life you want
I want more for you

Just walk through that open door
Its not locked, it’s open
Come in, breathe, inhale
Breathe the life I have given you
Reap the words I say to you

Take all of my life and breathe me in
Trust me when you fall I will catch you
I will never let you fall
I will always be here
Waiting…
Waiting…

Come…live…for I will shelter you
I give to you life the life you so deserve
My dying life is yours to breathe in
To carry on, to live strong…
You my love; you are strong…
