We’ve built a home round us
A life that I had only dreamed of
Has become a reality
And I want to thank you for the love you give me

I feel more myself than ever before
I feel calm, I feel safe, not hiding anymore
Happier than I ever thought I would be
Because of the love you give to me

You’ve shown me what it is to live
Not only to survive. When I look into your eyes
Even that is enough 
But you give me so much more

I feel more myself than ever before
I feel calm, I feel safe, not hiding anymore
Happier than I ever thought I would be
Because of the love you give to me

Our life is an adventure
And I love the road ahead

I feel more myself than ever before
I feel calm, I feel safe, not hiding anymore
Happier than I ever thought I would be
Because of the love you give to me

The Love You Give

You’ve shot yourself in the foot
Saying I handed you the gun
You’ll saying I’m making you trip
When you’re trying to catch up

CHORUS
I’ll never win. No, I’m not even fighting
Raise my white flag but you look the oth er way
There are two sides to every story
And we both have our parts to play
I give but you won’t take

I dare you to pull the trigger
While you look me in the eye
How long can you hold your aim for
Without getting tired?

CHORUS     

I can’t sleep
I can’t stay awake
I’m focused on you
I can’t concentrate
Im wondering how
Life ended up this way
If I was given the chance
What would I change?

CHORUS
Let you heart be 
Filled with love
I know life can drag you down
But you can get back up   
Let your smile show
And your eyes shine
I know they’ve been dulled before 
But let them see the light
  

I’ve been though things
I thought might end me
And sometimes I think
About what might have been
But I try not to waste time on 
Negativity ‘cause 
I’ve got more reasons
To be happy

CHORUS

Light

You want a chase? Well that's what you'll get
You've had a taste and things are getting heated
Now I'm on the run...'cause you said it's half the fun
I'll keep you on your toes and the heat turned up

CHORUS
Love how you tease me, leave your lips lingering
Gently over mine after each time we kiss
When you leave me I can still smell you on my skin
And I think to myself, it doesn't get better than this

Eyes locked on each other, undressing one another
Passion intensifies as your lips glide over
My body. Losing control, I need it now and you know
Exactly what to do to make me scream, oh!

CHORUS


Lingering Lips

Focusing so much on other people’s lives
You’re making your own miserable  
Surrounding yourself with people you don’t like
You’ll regret it when you end up alone

PRE CHORUS
Let your mouth run
No one is listening
This desperation 
Is getting boring 

CHORUS
What are you still holding on to 
That makes you so bitter?
You need to get over it 
And get on with your life

Jealousy doesn’t look good on anyone
It’s a look you’ve been wearing for too long
Not everyone you lose is a loss
So I let go and moved on

CHORUS

Let Go

Mornings wouldn't be so bad if I woke up by your side
Wrapped in your arms. That's my home- looking into your eyes
Touching your lips gently, my heart beat races as you smile
The smile that makes me weak. I wish we could stay here a while

From head to toe, I want to explore you, explore every inch
Tracing patterns on your body with my fingertips
I want to find every freckle dotted on your soft skin
And accompany each one with my lips, a sweet kiss

Listen as you whisper those three words to me
While you hold me tightly, we fit so perfectly
And I say I love you too. Oh can't you see
Im head over heels and I love how good this feels

Morning

Growing Up

When you wrap your arms around me
I am home, I am safe, I am free
And I fell for you so easily
Trying hard to explain how this feels, what you mean to me

CHORUS
and it seems that those three words are not enough
Say I love you but it still falls short of
What I really want to say, won't you please let me explain
That with you I feel like I'm the lucky one

And with every touch of your fingers on my skin
It feels like you're telling me a story without talking
And my body is so contently listening
To every word your hands full of intention are saying

CHORUS

Lucky One

I write songs- mostly for myself, sometimes for other people to sing/release.
