The Side That Loves Me



The other side of you, made me feel so blue, but when you created me, on land, your love shined through

I've seen the ocean floor, but I know there must be more and know I'm ready, for you to show me the shore

I think I'm ready, to present all of my facts, for you to love me, and stop the wolves in their tracks
