Salvation

I saw you falling
But was too slow to catch you
I saw you crying
But had no words to comfort you
I saw you hurting
But knew no way to heal you

I know you deserve more
Than what I can give
But you accept the best I have
Like no one else ever would
You tell me it's enough
That I am here and I try

Still I feel
As though I let you down
All I want
Is to be perfect for you
All my dreams
Are of our life together
You don't see
How you make me complete

Because...

When I fall
You are always there to catch me
When I cry
You always have the words to comfort me
When I am hurt
You always know how to heal me

It's this that you give to me
And my only desire
Is to give you the same
I know I fall short
Time and again
I know it doesn't
Matter to you that I have

My love is accepted
It's always good enough
You keep it in your heart
And never let it go
This is what makes me
Become a better man
Your faith in me
Gives me hope I've never had
