My Every Wish and More

True love is a myth we tell who we're with
To make sure that they'll be ours forever
I know there's too much
When I cannot feel your touch
And the fear of eternity is within me

She's a trusting soul
I take her honesty as shelter
Believing in her words
Is easier than searching within myself
There's a warm place where we can be together
Do I lead her down the aisle
Where I know I'll break her heart?

Some days I'll pray
Some days I'll wish I can fly away
But you let me daydream
'Cause you know I won't go far
You're all that I can dream for
You're my every wish and more

You can call it self-defense
Or define it how you want to
Pretend you didn't see this coming
Or is that just all want I want?
You're a dream girl,
When all I need are problems...
Why must you be my savior,
When who needs saving is yourself?

God, I think this is why we don't get wishes...
Or our every dream made true...
Because we don't truly know what's within our heart
We let our brains relay the message
How we read those dots and symbols
Determines our true fate
I'm done playing detective...
I have too little time to wait

Jennifer, it's all I ask
For you to let me now unmask
And show you all my deepest fears
I've kept within me for all these years
I'm finally ready to disclose
All the questions that are posed
When I'm the one who tries to sleep
Within the ocean, cold and deep

I'm sorry I haven't been the one
For you to turn to
For you to share
But that doesn't mean that I didn't care

What matters now is that I'm ready
My shaken hands are now rock steady
Despite my fears, despite the tears
You're all that I dream for
You're my every wish and more
