Nowhere Else to Be

If you said nothing at all, it would mean everything to me
Oh, just look at me with those eyes
With those eyes sparkling full of life
You don't need to say a word or tell me what you're thinking
Your eyes have already spoken for you...
Today you looked at me in such a way
My haert grew wings & flew almost carelessly into my throat
And I--a single breath away from where you were--I breathed
And there was nowhere else to be, but by your side
There was no earth, no ocean, no sky
The sea ceased to break, the wind ceased to blow
But somehow there was still sunshine
And that warm golden light, that I saw in your smile...
