You & I

I spoke to you again today In a grove of redwood trees You told me I am beautiful Spoke your truth to me Inside every winter is a summer waiting to be free And I am so very tired Tired of being me It's just that I've been Waiting for so long It's just that time keeps Moving on and on But every time I close my eyes I think of you and feel alright Telling me that everything will be just fine You and I were meant to be You and I were meant to see That you and I were all we need To have, to hold for eternity I lay inside the nook of the tallest tree trunk Felt it's branches wrap around me and shower me with leaves of gold I dreamt of strange places and time stood still And as we spoke I remembered when I was a little girl You said surrender and let go You said that I will never be alone Every time I close my eyes I think of you and feel alright Telling me that everything will be just fine You and I were meant to be You and I were meant to see That you and I were all we need To have, to hold for eternity As our conversation ended and dusk began to fall I thanked you and prepared to go back into the world The wind kissed the pine needles humming the melody And when I think of you I sing quietly You and I were meant to be You and I were meant to see That you and I were all we need To have, to hold for eternity You and I were meant to be You and I were meant to see That you and I were all we need To have, to hold for eternity
