A Home for Your Wandering Soul

I find it impossible to think you could really fall for me

The way I feel myself quickly falling into you

Into your life, into your dreams, into your smile

Somewhere in there, I see myself in too

I feel like I’ve known you forever, yet haven’t met you at all

Though the look in your eye and your actions say you want me back

The possibility of your love seems as unlikely as a cloudless day’s rainfall

Why would you want me? When so many discarded me before

Why would you dig me out of my hole in their trash?

Is it because, in me, you see something more?

More than I’ll ever be capable to see

More than they ever did

In my eyes do you see your future?

And in my smile, do you see where your fulfillment’s hid?

In me, I want you to find your adventures, laughter, ecstasy, and comfort for your wandering soul

I want to find the same in you

And maybe, one day, together, we’ll be whole

We’ll have the kind of love where kisses are in surplus, and “I love you”s aren’t hard to come by

Where promises are kept and cherished

Where uncertainty doesn’t just lead to bitter goodbyes

We’ll have the kind of love where we don’t have to hide our truths

Where you make the conscious choice every day to be with me

And I choose to be with you

Could you be my first happy love song?

To my long album, quite depressing

For so long I’ve felt like a chore to people

But could you see me as a blessing?

I want to believe you could love me

Like I could see myself loving you too

Maybe the others in the past didn’t work

Because my heart and my wandering soul was waiting just for you
