knew I loved you when 
I heard your voice, 
Like truck tires on a gravel road 
That's when our love story began 
Begging to be told 
 
When you looked me in the eyes 
For the very first time 
I knew I wanted to be the one 
To tell you my riddles and rhymes 
 
I'd climb any obstacle 
And move any mountain 
You're what keeps  
me grounded to the earth 
I thank the ancestors, oh oh 
 
You silenced the storm behind these eyes, the dumpster fire in my head. You read me like a book you shook the earth beneath my feet, showed me what its like to finally breathe got me on the straight and narrow oh oh 
 Woah oh oh my rose of Jericho  
 
Every now and again 
I hear your voice in my head 
Telling me i'm beautiful 
When the voice of doubt takes over 
 
When I stand in the mirror 
I wish I could see 
Myself through your eyes 
You make me want to love me too 
 
You've given me hope 
For a better life 
For you I wouldn't 
Mind being a housewife 
 
For now I hold your hand, cause I'd be damned, if I let somebody else's child, have the eyes I fell in love with  
 as I look above with my breath unsteady i thank the gods cause I prayed for you each and every night oh oh oh 
 
You silenced the storm behind these eyes, XXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XX XX XXXXX XXX XXXX XX XXXX X XXXX XXX XXXXX XXX XXXXX XXXXXXX XX XXXXX XXXXXX XX XXXX XXX XXXX XX XXXXXXX XXXXXXX XXX XX XX XXX XXXXXXXX XXX XXXXXX XX XX
