Somewhere to Live, Someone to Love

There’s a place I want to live

And someone I want to love

I want to live in a place

So full of joy

That it fills me too

So full of people

That I know there will be someone in my corner

Around the corner

I want to live in a place

Where thousands of stories get to unfold

And thousands of people get to call it their home

Each person on their own path

And each path gets to cross another

A place where you know deep down it’s your home

And people treat you like you are theirs

A place where dozens and dozens and dozens of people

Walk the same road each day

Every foot print a word in a novel

Telling a story even when you don’t know where it’s going

I want someone to love

Someone to call my own

Cradle their heart in my hands as they cradle mine

Knowing they won’t drop it

Knowing I won’t have to see the cracks form one by one

I want someone to love

A love so pure

That it reminds me of fresh flowers

And the morning sun

A love that spreads through my veins

Making each and every one glow

Someone to love

Whose hand fits in mine

And holds me tight

Keeping me from slipping away

Into the unknown

Someone to love

Who loves me right back

With such fierceness

And loyalty

I want someone to love

One day in the far far future

I hope I have a place where I can live

Filled with joy

And thousands of stories

I hope I have someone to love

Whose love reminds me of fresh flowers

And whose hand fits in mine

There’s a place I want to live

And someone I want to love
