Those Fearless Words

I love the way you say you're sorry
When you don't really know
how I feel at all
It's the thought that counts
And I know how hard you try.

I love the way you make me smile
In spite of everything, everyday
And how you can make me forget
The worst of my fears
If only for a little while.

I love the way you cry with me
Ask for the burden of pain
How you want so much
For me to breathe a little easier
Even if it means you hurt
As well.

I love the way you're my only light
And that you make me so unafraid
Your hand is the only one I'll take
I give up, you win
And I'm glad I lost
I'm fearless now
and I have but one thing left to say:

I love you.
