A Reason To Live

by Jersey D Gibson




Life holds no suprises for me...


Whisper to me all your promises,
make me smile one more time;
(your skin's so cold...)
lie in my bed again.

Tell me all those pretty things,
bring a smile to my face;
(your eyes are so hurt...)
just hold me a little closer.

Like a prayer,
you're my balm.
Like the silence,
you bring me calm.
Like a closet,
you give me room.
Like a cannon,
hear my heart boom.


Everytime you enter,
I feel my breath catch in my throat.
Everytime you smile,
can't get the thought of you out of my head.
Everytime you hold me,
makes my beating heart want to stop.
Everytime you take me,
finally found a reason to live.




You see me without my mask,
look at me, unprotected;
(I'm open to attack)
but you just hold me close.

Keep me company, keep me warm,
can't you see I'll do no harm;
(I was left shattered)
together, I can be worth so much more.

Like the sun,
you're my light.
Like the moon,
you're so bright.
Like a gift,
you've unwrapped me.
Like a child,
so beautiful to see.


Everytime you enter,
I feel my breath catch in my throat.
Everytime you smile,
can't get the thought of you out of my head.
Everytime you hold me,
makes my beating heart want to stop.
Everytime you take me,
finally found a reason to live.




I finally found a reason to live!
I finally found a reason to live!
Keep me, darling, I'm hear to give!
I finally found a reason to live!




Life for me holds no suprises...
