if i count the ways i love you…
If I count the ways I love you
No number big enough to go up to
I’d run out of fingers to count on
Need the future to have come and gone
I see you in the glow of the sunrise
And in the warmth of the sunset skies
I feel you in the comfort of our song
I dream of the arms in which I belong
I hear you in the silence, your voice calm and free
Your laughter echoes worlds around me
I love you when you’re here, miss you when you’re not
How thankful I am that I shot my shot
I love your smile, and the way you squint when you wake up
I cherish the glisten in your eyes as I hand you a warm cup
So counting the ways I love you seems pointless
To say I love you is too small to truly express
How I love your shimmering hair flowing in the sun
How I can’t believe a girl so perfect can be so fun
How I adore the warmth of your touch, the comfort of your embrace
How I could forever stare at the flushed cheeks of your face
I counted a few
To count them all would take days to get through
More like years or decades to list all the ways
It would take some kind of lavender haze
For time to stop, and Neverland to be real too
Just so I could count all the ways I love you
