This is a love song about my future wife (cheesy, I know). When I first started the song, it felt very romantic and I knew it had to be a love song. I wasn't in love at the time, so I found a way to write romantically while still having the lyrics be true to myself.
lyrics
I see the stars at night
I'm thinking of you and me
I pray we'll be all right
You're all that I can see
The planets did align
For us to coexist
I want to see you shine
A lighthouse in the mist
Love took it's time and so did I,
We're all just lonely passersby
I hear the songs you sing
Fragrant melodies
Don’t heed the past I bring
A forest for the trees
I wanna set you free
From all that holds you down
I pray one day you’ll see
The beauty I have found
Love took it's time and so did I,
We're all just lonely passersby
And I will come find you
And I will come find you
And I will come find you
And I will come find you
Love took it's time and so did I,
We're all just lonely passersby
I see the stars at night
I’m thinking of you and me
