Music to soothe your soul.

Track 15
Against You

Against You

If I opened myself
Like I didn't have a care
I need your embrace
Like my lungs need air

If I told you the truth
Would you hold it against me?

This feels so real
It was sent from above
God only knows
We're so worthy of this love

If I touched your soul
Would you hold it against me?

It's like a telling of the heart
Immersed in vulnerability
This is my kind of struggle
Me against you
You against me

I hope you love this little song
Heartfelt from me to you
Can I have this dance
My whole life through?

If I reach for your hand
Would you hold it against me?

If I give you my world
Will you treat it gently?
It holds the strength and beauty
Of that old arbutus tree

If I give you my heart
Can I hold it against you?

It's like a welling of the heart
It's plain for everyone to see
This is my kind of battle
Me against you
You against me

How do you thank someone
Who's handed your life back to you?
There's no words
Gratitude and love shining through

Can I give you my love
And hold it against you?
