For You

By Jo Rosado

The following are lyrics to a song I wrote for someone I will forever love dearly and hold close.

When I wake up in the morning
And I get out of bed,
You’re the first thing that I think about. 
I can’t get you out of my head.
Counting the minutes ‘til I see you,
‘Til I could hold your face.
You know my deepest wish is to stay in your embrace.

For you,
For you
I’d sail the seven seas,
Travel all the galaxies.
For you,
For you 
I’d walk a million miles
Just to see you smile.

Tell me your hopes and dreams,
Tell me your darkest fears.
And when you’re feeling down, I’ll be right here to wipe your tears. 
Sing me to sleep as the fire burns out
And stars begin to shine.
Tell me about the beauty of life,
Tell me I’m yours and you are mine.

For you,
For you
I’d sail the seven seas,
Travel all the galaxies.
For you,
For you 
I’d walk a million miles
Just to see you smile.

The moment that I met you,
My world was filled with light.
I couldn’t see before, but, girl, 
You gave me my sight. 
Ever since then I have a fire 
That only you ignite.
Time spent without you,
It just isn’t right.

For you,
For you
I’d sail the seven seas,
Travel all the galaxies.
For you,
For you 
I’d walk a million miles
Just to see you smile.
