Taking Your Hand

I hate to let you see me weak
Those times that my world feels so bleak
When I fall to a place I hate to be
Lost in my mind as I fall to my knee
But this private hell grows smaller each day
When by my side you insist you will stay
And as I look up I see your hand
As it reaches out to help me stand

Savoring Defeat

All the past, the pain and fear
Fade away when you are near
In your eyes there shines a light
That takes away all my fright
You make me feel so much more
Than I thought I could before
Deeper into your web I fall
Against my will I give you all
Though I swore I would not give in
My resolve broken by your grin
So speak your words so soft and sweet
And I will concede my defeat
