Look Longer

Words and music by Christopher J. Atkins © 2004, 20025. All rights reserved.

At first glance you know me as the best friend you’ve ever had

You come to me for comfort when the good of life goes bad

But look deeper in your heart at what we’ve got

You and I have found the love you’ve always sought

So I’m asking you

To look longer than you’ve ever done before

Look harder at what could be the open door

To the love that you’ve wanted all your life

If you look longer at me.

 

At first glance we are different as day is from the night

But when we are together life comes together right

Now I can’t imagine anyone but you

To have next to me, to see each other through

So I’m asking you

 

To look longer than you’ve ever done before

Look harder at what could be the open door

To the love that you’ve wanted all your life

If you look longer at me.

 

Over time we’ll be marked and aged by decades and the tears

But I’ll always see your beauty and I’ll hold you through your fears

And we’ll cling to the memories in our heart

‘til one final breath calls us apart

From beyond the blue I’m asking you

 

To look longer than you’ve ever done before

Look harder at what could be the open door

To the love that you’ve wanted all your life

If you look longer

Look longer at me.
