For You….
- For You….by Kristy Tallman
For you….
No matter where you go,
no matter how many miles
that come between us,
if there’s silence,
there’s always a whisper,
a moment when you will find
on a soft breeze the sounds
of my voice -
callin’ out to you -
callin’ out for you.
I have traveled high
I’ve traveled low,
some days are good
while others I feel like
I’m losing my mind
but in the warmth of your arms
I keep on trying,
no matter how hard it is
I keep on trying
to find my way back -
find my way back to you -
the one who keeps me grounded -
the one who keeps me sane
even when I can’t be.
Sometimes I’m carried off on a wind,
carried off on a feeling
of not wanting to exist
but I couldn’t go if I wanted to
because I need -
I need -
I need you.
No matter how far away
my thoughts are,
no matter how many miles
the silence brings
between our hearts
I can hear you,
the first time
you whispered my name,
the first time
you made me feel alive -
so no if there’s a moment
I don’t seem to be with you,
know in my heart you always are
because I keep on holding,
keep on holding onto you…
Too many times
you catch me when I fall,
you heal my soul
and give me what it takes to go on,
you warm my heart
when a cold wind blows,
so when my heart
feels like it’s dying,
I’ll keep on trying,
keep on holding,
keep on living -
living for you…
Sometimes I’m carried off on a wind,
carried off on a feeling
of not wanting to exist
but I couldn’t go if I wanted to
because I need -
I need -
I need you.
