Lyrics

Why do I deserve such a visit
From the one I thought I'd never meet
Beyond my greatest expectations
You exceeded everything
Well here I am

Take me for what you see
For I'm transparent in the light of you
And look inside
See that fire burning bright
The same one that you rekindled inside me

My mouth was dry
Only you quenched my thirst
I thought I was last
You told me I was first

And I thought I was seeing angels
And now I know I was
Your wings around me
Feel good they always does

So there I was
Ain't the same man I used to be
But do you still like what you see in me

Still see through
Always will be with you
Can you stand to see my vulnerability

For I am frightened
Shed so much I clung onto
The only things I have left is this guitar and you

Nowhere to run
Been out here too long
Under the sun
Am I too afraid
To get some
To afraid to give myself some shade
I hope and pray I do some day
