In Any Weather

The poison I was sipping on

Before I met you

Was destined to kill me some day, Babe

But because of you

I’ve been saved

These sad eyes

That reflected those dark times

Have started to shine

And I

Owe it all

To you

This life is new

With you 

I realize now that I was living out of habit

Because it was all I knew

But now I know you

And everything we do

Feels new again

Like it did

When we were kids

To love is you the privilege of a lifetime 

To love all of you

Your mind

Your body 

Your soul

The whole

To nourish it all

And grow with you

It’s all I want now

And I fear that it might be all that I need.

What about these dreams

That have deceived me so passionately?

Am I to let them die?

Or are you the fuel to continue to try?

Do I double down now?

Or do I make you my dreams? . . .

There are no rainy days with you

Because with you

The rain becomes a stage

For us to dance on

Together 

I’d kiss you in any weather. 

You are magic.
