I need a silent, true way to admire
Like you as a sunset, and I as a wildfire
And I can let the day go

I've locked up these words in fear that I'd say them wrong
Is it love as a mountain or love as a simple song?
And the moment that the two meet
Has now laid itself at your feet

And love is not convenient
It does not cease at your command
You might take and leave it
But love is all I am
Love is all I am

I need a boundless, soft way to commend
Like you as a temper and I as its tender end
And however long your fits last
I will live within your shadow cast

And love is still your stranger
It does not respect how much you'll stand
You might be love's reminder
But love is all I am
Love is all I am
I need a graceful, proud way to let go
To smile and accept the things that you don't know
The losses and the gains blurred
The weight of these as last words

And love is not excitement
It's not kissing or holding hands
I'm not some assignment
No, love is all I am
Love is all I am
