I know a love that keeps me calm in the storm
Keeps the blood inside of me warm
Wherever I go, it never leaves
Like a suitcase of memories
I know a love that's stronger than I am
It beats me up, and keeps me trying
And when I can't, it fights for me
From boy to man and the in between
I remember backpackin' by the water
Lake days, clear see the bottom
Free falling to words from the '90's, over fire pits
Through scattered words and my mistakes
I hope you heard, what I meant to say
There will be times when it rains on you
I'll be the life raft you can hold on to
And on the day when I turn to dust
I hope you know just how much I love you
I know a love that looks me right in the eyes
Helps me see beyond boundaries and lines
Unveils a better side of me
Sometimes, it's all i need
I remember backpackin' by the water
Lake days, clear see the bottom
Free falling to words from the '90's over fire pits
Through scattered words and my mistakes
I hope you heard, what I meant to say
There will be times when it rains on you
I'll be the life raft you can hold on to,
And on the day when i turn to dust,
I hope you know just how much i love you
This love i've found, life's greatest lesson
In my wake, I hope it leaves an impression
What has been paves the road for what's to be
Every step I take, I'll let it lead
I remember backpackin' by the water
Lake days, clear see the bottom
Free falling to words from the '90's over fire pits
Through scattered words and my mistakes
I hope you heard, what i meant to say
There will be times when it rains on you
I'll be the life raft you can hold on to
And on the day when I turn to dust
I hope you know just how much I love you
