but I'm counting on you

to walk me home today

our hands clasped tightly

till we lingered on the front steps

didn't want to say goodbye

could you bring me back

from the edge of never

watch the sun fading into the sky

as night brings velvet under stars

shadows are stretching longer

but I'm still reaching for your hand

words are most unnecessary now

yet I'm longing for your arms

shelter me in a piece of forever

all I needed was to touch you

to feed my soul and feel myself becoming alive

I'm waiting for you

to walk me home today

and we'll walk slowly

so this feeling never fades
