The Gift You Give

Eclipse

Every morning as I wake and feel you by my side

Comfort comes with every breath and worries leave my mind

Loving me is the gift you give that makes me who I am

Inspiring me to do all I can to be a better man

Proving soul mates do exist, you fit just like a glove

Sheltering me, saving me

Eclipsing my broken heart, by gifting me your love!!
