I was in a sea of despair, struggling to stay afloat
when you came in and saved me with your rescue boat
you saw my struggle against the current and the waves
you told me you were here to chase all of the darkness away
you held out a hand and pulled me aboard
you had a strong and secure feeling that I absolutely adored.
we arrived on the shore, and walked away from the ocean
you took away all my sadness in one simple motion
we would stay up for hours just listening to each others voice
I started to fall for you without a choice.
and of course those warm nights of September are the nights I miss the most
the nights where we held each other closer than close.
the nights where we fought like nobody would've ever dared
the nights where you would deny about how much you cared.
I remember the night I knew you were soon going to leave
and that's the night I cried myself to sleep
and once you left I knew that was it, and that you were gone
once you left I realized you were why I was happy all along.
and when those September nights came back around
I smiled to myself and remembered your eyes and the way you sound
I realized that in those September nights that you are the only one I trust
& the only one who could make me see
I realized that you somewhere, watching and protecting me.
