Two Weeks

I thought I was fine doing what I was doing
Getting through each day to day
Running through the Rat Race doing what was expected
Going through the motions all the same

Things seemed great doing all I was doing
Thought I locked you in the back of my mind
But the winds of change knew what they were doing
As I grasped to the pieces of my life

'Cause you blew in like the wind
And you whisked me off my feet in circles
You blew through me like the wind
And I fell with the autumn leaves

I forgot all about love without understanding
And the unexplainable peace
I misplaced all my inside too scared I'd slip up again
Yet loving each moment you disarm me

I forgot all about the comfort
I found in your eyes that wrapped around like your oversized jacket.
And now I know that you finally see me
And not the emptiness I've been

You blew in like the wind
And you whisked me off my feet in circles
You blew through me like the wind
And I fell with the autumn leaves

And it all floods back as I sip my peppermint tea
And the sweet sound of Billie Holiday nearly immobilizes me
So I capture every moment and I hoard every word
And the pure joy in your laughter echoes through each distraction heard

You blew in like the wind
And you whisked me off my feet in circles
You blew through me like the wind
And I fell with the autumn leaves
