lyrics

Remember how we once held those words
Seldom spoken cautiously reserved
Shared only with a chosen few, they were
Unsurpassed in their magnitude

When those words we first confessed
To one another so effortlessly and sweet
While valuing their power and weight
And all that they anticipate

Then proclaimed before a crowd
Standing before one another so proud

I said I love you as a solemn vow
To look beyond the here and the now
To commit myself to you
And every day my promise renew

I said I love you as a solemn vow
For as long as time will allow
To lose a little of myself for you
To leave what’s behind to enter into
When I said I love you as a solemn vow

Later as the shine begins to fade
We doubt the wisdom of the choice we made
When nothing seems to come easily
A greater purpose hard to see

When our patience is wearing down
The road ahead overcast with clouds
When we resemble actors in a play
Repeating lines we are only expected to say

When the words are hard to find
And only whispered like a sigh

I say I love you as a prayer
To summon strength when it’s not fully there
To point to what lies out of my reach
To call for aid in my time of need

I say I love you as a prayer
When living feels just like gasping for air
When my heart is cold and my will is weak
And I cannot own these words I speak
I say I love you as a prayer

And some days you will need to hear it more
To hear it as you did long before today
To be reminded of what still remains
To hold onto when everything is changing

So when you see a stranger in my eyes
A foreigner you do not recognize
When you waver in your trust in me
When you see me as an enemy

I ask that you bring to mind
The man you’ve known for all this time

When I say I love you as an affirmation
In the uncertainty a confirmation
To testify to what is true
To bring myself back to you

I say I love you as an affirmation
To give our memories validation
To show you where we once began
To reassure you where we still stand
I say I love you as an affirmation
