The places we've been to these past seven years seem so far
And the way that we came to be here, where we are, seemed so hard
And maybe I'm not in my right to long for peace in your eyes
But baby, I know you're not right ...
If only the love that you'd feel for me, you'd feel for you

You made it easy for me to give myself up
You waited, you leaned out for me
And you never changed, did you, my love?
And after the pain came a peace;
Then a happiness like we've never known
So help me to help you and say for me
After all that you did for me, what can I do?
Oh, how I would find a way
Oh, how I would find a way
I would do anything...and I would never let you go
Open my eyes and let me see you shining

And maybe, one move at a time, you’d learn to love yourself again
I’d take you in my longing arms and try forever;
Please be happy, my love
And all of the pain in your life, I’d make it better;
And all that you do, I’d make it matter - matter to me and to you

Oh, and in my way
Oh, and in my way I’ve only tried to love you more
I opened everything
Now open your eyes – can you see me shining?
