lyrics

Love of mine, I’ve sent you sailing through the sky. When you return to Earth I’ll prove my worth to you. I have watched you grow. We’ve been living in each others’ shadows. And I have learned to take such comfort in words displayed on screens. And when you look at what we’ve built, do you not smile? I've watched you grow out from inside. I was once a child, painfully small in my father’s eyes. And he was right - that one day I would grow to laugh at all the things I held in such regard. And you, you are so brave, diving headfirst into this mess we’ve made. And you said, “The water’s fine. Come on in, we haven’t got all night.” And when you look at what we’ve built, do you not smile? You know I've loved you for a while. Combine all the constructs that we’ve created. Every action felt, each motive stated. Remember that both love and fear are fading, but that’s enough to build upon.
