If Only for You [live]

Another song I wrote for my ex-wife.
All that surrounds me
I breathe it in, I breathe it out of my senses
I find myself drifting off into you
Sweet as the morning
You’re the light, you’re the love in my home now
As if you were there all along, quietly inside of me
Never saw you in my lonely room
Never heard you on the empty telephone line
I could only feel you off somewhere
On an island never seen, a world away from mine
But you are here now
And there is spring where the winter had frozen over
And summertime is still ahead, where the air is warm and free
And when autumn leaves begin to fall
As the seasons fade, some colors will start to run
And if ever I lose the ability to see
Your heart will be the mirror of all we’ve said and done
Because you surround me
I breathe you in, I breathe you out of my soul now
I find myself inside of you, warm and free
And I would do it all again, if they asked me to
If only for you
