My love, leave yourself behind
Beat inside me, leave you blind
My love, you have found peace
You were searching for release
You gave it all into the call
You took a chance and
You took the fall for us
You came thoughtfully
Loved me faithfully
You taught me honor
You did it for me
Tonight you will sleep for good
You will wait for me, my love
Now I am strong, you gave me all
You gave all you had
And now I am home
My love, leave yourself behind
Beat inside me, leave you blind
My love, look what you can do
I am mending, I'll be with you
You took my hand and added a plan
You gave me your heart
I asked you to dance with me
You loved honestly
Did what you could release
Ah, ooh
I know you're pleased to go
I won't relieve this love
Now I am strong, you gave me all
You gave all you had
And now I am home
My love, leave yourself behind
Beat inside me, I'll be with you
she wrote this song when her (first love) boyfriend died. They traveled together (I presume after high school) and at one point she stayed in Thailand and he flew to London. 2 weeks before she was coming over as well, he died in a car accident. heart breaking ! It's awful to lose a person you love and care about.
I love the song, reminds me to treasure the loving people I have in my life because they can be gone anytime.
