You Saved My Life

There’s beauty in the way you say goodbye
There’s solace when I recall your eyes
And if your smile ever faded
I prayed I would be graced again

A touch so soft I could’ve fell right through
Admittedly I’ve never felt so true
And though it’s time as the assailant
I’ve become too complacent
And will take my fate with or without you

There’s blood that hasn’t dried
And tears still in your eyes
As I realize
It’s you who saved my life
