Song Lyrics:

~Verse One~

Even though these dreams seem to have passed we can sit out in the grass looking at the clouds, dew on the ground, holding hands, watching our bones turn to sand. It may have not turned out the way you had hoped looking through a telescope at the stars. It could have been better than this. But I wouldn’t change it for any other wish. Just think about things we’ve known. About how we’ve grown. It may not be the same these days, but you’re still the one I adore, oh and more.

~Verse Two~

Floating against the brook is a leaf golden in color, such splendor. Light shines against the glades, its rays not afraid of the fray. Illuminating trees feeling the breeze that no one can see except for you and me, holding hand as we turn to sand. My memoires aren’t just in the past. They’re right now like an hour glass in the shifting sands of the tide. I’ll be there for you for the rest of my life. Realizing no one understands the pain inside you can’t seem to hide. Because, it always tends to show up on the outside even though you try.

~Chorus~

If you could be anything, what would it be? If you could see anything, what would you see? If you could be with anyone, would it be me?

~Verse Three~

I’m sitting in my chair in the yard staring at the trees while you read noticing the breeze. It feels free. I can see past the disease of sin in my skin decaying these bones that make us feel alone. But that’s not true because I’ve got you. And you’ve got me too. And there’s another. You know who I’m talking about. He just makes me want to shout praise and thank you for the mother you’ve turned out to be. It isn’t because of who I am. But because you’re stronger than you think. That tree is going to grow.

~Chorus~

If you could be anything, what would it be? If you could see anything, what would you see? If you could be with anyone, would it be me?

~Verse Four~

Eye to eye, the bright little smile, freckles almost unseen. The way you lean into my chest when you’re hugging me. It makes me feel free. The unspoken words from a light little glance makes me know that you understand. The older we get the more things will change, but that’s God’s plan.
