Because You LiveStaring out at the rain with a heavy heart
It's the end of the world in my mind
Then your voice pulls me back like a wake up call
I've been looking for the answer
Somewhere
I couldn't see that it was right there
But now I know what I didn't know
He was sitting on the couch, thinking hard. He imagined his life before she came and how much he didn't want to go back to that. He had been searching so hard to find love that he hadn't seen that she was right there. It took him a long time to realize that she was the one for him. She came into the room with a soda in her hand, having gone to the kitchen for a drink. She sat down next to him and said, "What's up?" He snapped back into the room, leaving all previous thoughts behind him. It amazed him how she could do that with the simplest of words. He replied quickly, "Nothing. Nothing at all…how 'bout you?" She smiled and nodded in agreement, then lay her head on his shoulder.
Because you live and breathe
Because you make me believe in myself
When nobody else can help
Because you live, girl
My world
Has twice as many stars in the sky
He was nothing without her. He knew it, and he was constantly reminding himself as such. Because she was there, he was able to make it through everything that happened to him. He found himself smiling around her, despite how terrible his day was. She constantly pushed him to strive for his best. She helped him believe in himself and helped him believe that he could do anything if she was behind him. She asked him, "What are you thinking about?" He replied without hesitation, "You." She smiled and said, "Well I hope it's all good…?" He laughed and said, "Of course. There isn't anything bad to think about you." When he was around her, his life felt brighter, almost perfect.
It's alright
I survived
I'm alive again
Because of you
Made it through every storm
What is life, what's the use?
If you're killed inside
I'm so glad I found an angel
Someone,
Who was there when all my hopes fell
I wanna fly looking in your eyes
He had felt so lost without her. When she came into his life, he hadn't imagined that she would save him the way she had. Because she was right there, beside him, he had made it through his darkest of times. If she wasn't there, he didn't see the point of living. Having this incredible love was the most fantastic feeling he had ever felt. He had never felt so much for one person, even his family. He was so happy that he'd found her. She had come to him when he had lost all hope. Looking at her, he felt like he could do anything. He felt invincible looking into her eyes.
Because you live and breathe
Because you make me believe in myself
When nobody else can help
Because you live, girl
My world
Has twice as many stars in the sky
Because you live
I live
Everyone else tried to make him happy, but she was the only one who could bring a smile to his face no matter what was happening. He wasn't sure how long he would've survived if he hadn't found her. He was so close to losing it, and then she came along and everything went back into place. She helped him regain control of his life and turn it into something worth living. The sun shone a bit brighter, the stars twinkled a little more, and the grass looked greener now that he had her.
Because you live
There's a reason why
I carry on when I lose the fight
I want to give what you given me
Always
If he failed at something, he didn't lose all hope. He just went to her and she would make everything better…somehow. He wasn't sure why or how, but just being around her made everything seem okay again. His only hope was that he could do for her what she had done for him. He hoped that he made her as happy as she made him. He asked her quietly, "Are you happy?"
"What do you mean?"
"With us…are you happy?"
"Of course! Why wouldn't I be?"
"Just wondering…"
"Are you happy…with us…and everything?"
"Absolutely."
Because you live and breathe
Because you make me believe in myself
When nobody else can help
Because you live, girl
My world
Has twice as many stars in the sky
Because you live and breathe
Because you make me believe in myself
When nobody else can help
Because you live, girl
My world
Has everything I need to survive
He didn't need anything else in his life. He already had everything he needed. He had family, friends, and the most spectacular love you could ever find. It's rare, this kind of special love, and they had it. With so many failing relationships around them, it was amazing how they stayed together without a fight or anything to upset them. They were truly meant for each other. They just fit. Because she lives, he lives.
Because you live
I live
I live
A/N-
Note #1- I wasn't sure if my lyrics were right because I got two different versions on the internet. If you're 100 percent positive that I'm wrong, then please let me know.
Note #2- As always, if you have any song suggestions, please let me know. I still have a few that I have to look up and listen to and when I figure out how, I will. I promise.
Note #3- As said before, updates will be SLOOOOW! I'm trying as hard as I can to get chapters finished for the times I'm allowed on. It's hard though…I have a job on Wednesdays, tons of homework, a million EC activities, and writing isn't exactly my favorite chill activity (though I do love it more than many things, including homework.) On top of ALL of that, I have…um….6 (I think…that's bad, isn't it? That I don't know how many I'm writing….hmm…) stories that I'm trying to keep up with and that's difficult. Inspiration is way weary. So please bear with me as I try to get things under control a little.
Note #4- Thank you to all of my wonderful reviewers, I love you all so much! I'm glad that everyone seems to be loving this so far! Like I've said before, I'm hoping to add a story line to this a little bit. Like maybe a proposal or something…I don't know yet. I'll let ya know….
Note #5- a reviewer for the last chapter asked who this story was about and who the actual characters were. I wanted to respond to that in case any one else was harboring the same question: This story has no "real characters." I have left them nameless so you can feel free to envision anyone you want to. I thought it was a pretty cool idea. I put it up in SLOZC because I figured that because less people read these than, let's say Harry Potter, and I'm a pretty big writer in the SLOZC scene (not to sound braggy) I'd get pretty good response. I'm thinking of expanding it to HP now that I'm updating it with chapters and it's not just a one shot.
Note #6- I noticed as I was writing this that things seem to be repeating themselves. I say things over and over again, and I don't really mean to. Let me know if things are getting a little boring and I'll…spice it up a little: D : P
Okay, so now I'm just stalling….and I ran out of stalling material so I guess I'll stop now. : D
Love,
DC
