The one who gifts you, the one who lifts you She's the angel in your eyes Tiny kisses and magic wishes Makes the world a big surprise Growing older, past the shoulder When everything seems bright Time just races-changing faces in the light Then you see the world gets smaller And you're taller than the sky She's no longer the stronger And as you battle to survive You try to bend her; can't defend her There's no wrong; there is no right No one surrenders-only contenders in this fight I know the madness, felt the sadness Resisted just this way Stuffed the feelings kept concealing All the things you want to say But it's not treason; she's not the reason It's the season of your life The winds will soften and let the winter fade away You have to mend it; you have to end it
Before the chance pa**es by Break down the fences your defenses Open your heart; you have to try To trust your senses; no more pretenses And you'll rise above When you surrender to all the splendor of her love The one who gifts you, the one who lifts you She's the angel in your eyes The one who stayed there so unafraid there All through innocence's demise Growing older, as you hold her Once again it seems all right Time just races-changing faces in the light Go on mend it; Go on and end it Before the chance pa**es by Break down the fences and your defenses Open your heart you have to try To trust your senses; no more pretenses I believe you'll rise above When you surrender to all the splendor of her love When you surrender to all the splendor of her love
