the beauty in our lives

i never thought that i, at nineteen would find
this truth and beauty staring back at me from your eyes
and i never thought that you would be so open to
talking with me about the things that make our dreams come true.

we move through space and time, and we never compromise
and we never make excuses for the beauty in our lives
so baby here we are, we've come so very far
in the minutes since that monday in the front seat of your car.

and i see you everyday, and every time i want to say
that now when i blush all i want to do is stay.
'cause i love the way you move, and the people you include
and how there's nowhere else we'd look to when you walk inside a room

and you listen to me sing, all this love i try to bring
and you take it and you hold it like no one i've ever seen
we've got some things to figure out, but i'm sure without a doubt
that when it's said and done we'll know what it's all about.
