When You Look at Me 

I see the sorrow deep in your stare
And I feel the silence heavy in the air
I know your thoughts, the storm in your mind
But when our eyes meet, I still find
 
You look at me — I love you still
 
I sense the weight of all your fears
I hear your cries, I taste your tears
You're breaking down, yet standing tall
But even in the pain, through it all
 
You look at me — I love you still
 
I calm the rage you try to hide
I hold your grief and stay by your side
With trembling hands I wipe your eyes
Together breathing through your cries
 
You look at me — I love you still
 
You’re here beside me, your hand in mine
I’m here beside you, trying to redefine
What joy might mean, through sorrow's skin
And draw the light back in again
 
You look at me — I love you still
 
I take a step and cross the space
Open my arms in soft embrace
Your warmth, your heart, your steady beat
The place where broken pieces meet
 
You look at me — I love you still
 
I see a smile begin to shine
A quiet laugh, soft and divine
The storm is fading, still and true
And all I say belongs to you
 
You look at me — I love you still
