For Dear Life (feat. Jason Lancaster)
Derek Sanders
If there was ever asked a perfect question
It was what you ever saw inside of me
'Cause I can't lie and say I'm fine
Or that I'm not scared of these changing tides
As the world is swept away by a summer breeze
I hear he makes you feel whole, just like I used to
And that he's never gonna break like I'm about to
So now that you're lost in your head
Like I should be lost in your eyes
You know love don't go as easy as we'd hoped
I will hold on for us both
I dream of times when things were different
A time you were in love, and it was with me
But life hit hard as I missed most marks
And I let you down and you fell apart
I got so lost and you got harder to reach
But I hear he knows the words that make you shiver
And as I'm drowning in the deepest of seas
And you stay lost in your head
Like I should be lost in your eyes
We know love don't go as easy as we'd hoped
Will you remember times of hope and love
The kind that I'm reminded of
When I say now that there's a moment you let go
I will hold on for us both ('cause I'm)
Struggling to keep my grip
So much has changed, so much has slipped
But someone said it's always dark before the dawn
(Someone said it's dark before)
'Cause I have changed and something clicked
Please don't let go and hold onto this
'Cause I can't live without your kiss to linger on
If you stay lost in your head
Like I stay lost in your eyes
Because love don't go as easy as you'd hoped
Will you remember times of hope and love
The kind that I'm reminded of
When I say now that there's a moment you let go
I'd kill to take back every moment you let go
'Cause I can't breathe without you
Please don't let me go
There's never been a time that I didn't love you
But there were times I was too weak to let it show
And I can feel my heartbeat drifting further
But I can't reach you, please don't let me go
