The One Who Loves You

Love like this, it’s hard to find
When you do it overflows
You caught me staring in your eyes
Sometimes I forget it shows
Your eyes, they’re sad, full of pain
Like someone old remembering
Someone they’ve loved all their life
They’ll never see again
Here is the one who loves you
The one who needs the love you give
Here is the one who needs you
Who knows that wasted love
You want so much to give
You’re like a city long at war
With some imagined enemy
Whose left its walls to crumble down
So you can steal away
And now that battle’s nearly won
Your eyes meet mine surrendering
When I’ve won all the love you hold
You’ll have it back again
Here is the one who loves you
The one who needs the love you give
Here is the one who needs you
Who knows that wasted love
You want so much to give
Love like this, it’s hard to find
But when you do it overflows
You caught me staring in your eyes
Sometimes I forget it shows
And now that battle’s nearly won
Your eyes meet mine surrendering
When I’ve won all the love you hold
You’ll have it back again
