All My Life

All My Life Light rises over the mountains When I arrive at our door These nights seem longer and longer Like so many nights before I tread softly and try not to wake you But I hear you quietly weep I lay down and slip under the covers Feel the tears you have cried in your sleep In silence, side by side We sense the night come alive In silence we catch the dawn's first light In silence I hear the sound of our thoughts rage in fear What can I do when all I am is here? All my life is for you All my life is for you Damn all the tears and the hurt, babe When you look at me, that's all I can do All my life is for you All my life is for you The road that we chose was not easy But we made it through The dreams we once dreamed have withered Ashes cannot build a fire But we've made it this far together And still have our hopes and desires If toughness and pride are virtues Then the world would be empty and cold We are meant to be kind to each other And keep all the love we can hold All my life is for you All my life is for you... New dreams arise from the wounds Rise up through hardship and pain We've dreamed all the dreams We can dream, babe Through every night and day I know we are willing Willing to be in each other's life Willing to love and to cherish Not willing - to give up the fight All my life is for you All my life is for you...
