My Darling, My Companion

My darling, my companion
Well, I don't know you
Or at least you feel a million miles away
My darling, my companion
I want to share my secrets
And I want my faith in love to save the day
My darling, I'm a constant
This burning ache inside me
And its screaming that I always bring me down
My darling, my companion
You think until you're breaking
And keep your single solemn soul inside a sound

You've toiled for a lifetime
Your heart portrayed in red lines
My pigment turned a pale hue
My darling, my companion
Don't think, just let me shine through
More than your comprehension
I hope you know I love you

I'll find the colors within my outline
All the things left behind
I'll find the inside that I left outside
Greet myself with a poet's mind
And I chase the ghost from my heartbeat's lifeline
Look where dark turns to light
I'll find the inside that I left outside
Fill this vessel beyond my bloodline
Learn to call myself mine

My darling, my companion
I wanna know you
I've a gentle heart inside a fragile shell
My darling, my companion
This acrid maw of yearning
It'll eat up every essence, every cell
My darling, I'm a constant
I try so hard to trust you
I hold out for the breakthrough
It never seems to reach you
My darling my companion
It's far too much to handle
But know if you're around, you're never by yourself

I've been here 'fore you knew me
A name without a body
We both know what we've been through
My darling, my companion
Don't think, just let me shine through
More than your comprehension
I hope you know I love you

I'll find the colors within my outline
All the things left behind
I'll find the inside that I left outside
Greet myself with a poet's mind
And I chase the ghost from my heartbeat's lifeline
Look where dark turns to light
I'll find the inside that I left outside
Fill this vessel beyond my bloodline
Learn to call myself mine

If love will find a way, then love will find a way
Love will find a way
If love will have a way, then love will have a way
Love will have a way
If love will find a way, then love will find a way
Love will find a way
If love will have a way, then love will have a way
Love will have a way

Maybe you could stay here just a little longer
Make the time pass slower
Maybe you could make this last forever
And you could be my lover
So feel the warmth and the breeze on your face
Ain't it a sweet sensation?
Oh it's a great big grand restoration
All love and adoration
Oh, to be your constant companion
