(Cuddy's P. of view)
One step forward and two steps back
just stuck in the same situation
You've seen me in the corners
a bystander in your world
at least that's what I thought
And when I saw you drowning
I found myself running to your rescue
unafraid and without a thought
without a doubt in mind
and it's been like this
for so long it's my burden
one I chose to willingly take
all because
You took my heart and pulled me along
beside you we walked in pain
towards heaven's gates
through hell's waters
and I've never been the same
And there was a time I vaguely remember
we were running and we collapsed
but you didn't tremble, just turned to me
and I caught your round blue eyes
and as calming as they were
They told me if we died tonight
I'd be caught steady in your arms
and that you'd never leave my side
myself cradled in you
and it happened in the instant
no seconds to pause the time
the situation turned, you carrying it instead
all because
You took my hand and clutched my heart
carrying me along the road
towards heaven's far gates
through hell's deepest waters
you upheld the entire load
Now I know the cards have overturned
and things have learned to change
but it's the things we can't fight
so we just have to let go, for now
please hear me when I say
things haven't ended yet
and there's still time to make amends
just help me change my mind
show me what you're made of
so I can come back to you
Now clarity has been overpowered
by what I'm not so sure
but what I still don't forget, is when you pulled me holding my hand and heart
through the roads leading us to heaven's gates
through the deepest of hell's waters
the blood shed from sacrifice
the tears shed from sorrow
but I know you're waiting like me
for the kiss of tomorrow
