Shall I Run, or Shall I Fall?

We take one step forward, and then we take three back.
You declared war; yes, you were the first to attack.
So, slowly close your eyes.
Take a deep breath and release.
When you open will you find,
Will you still find me?

And so, where does that leave you, leave me?
Where does that leave us?
Where do we go from here?
I never wanted all of this fuss.
I never wanted the whole world.
I never asked for all the diamonds and every pearl.
All I ever wanted was you, you to want me too.

I look up at the stars,
And I look up at the sun,
And I know who you are,
And I know you are the one,
Yes, I know what you have done,
But you are still the one.

This wasn't my sole intention,
But my sole intended otherwise.
All my certainties of your flaws
Become doubts when you look into my eyes.

Grab your long-sleeve tee
And meet me outside.
I am here for any need;
I am a safe place to confide.
Please, dear, don't fear.
It's just you and me here.
Share your secrets, your blanket, your heart.
I swear to protect, in my own,your shaking hands
As long as you do your part
And give me this dance.
