Just As You Are, My Only Star

If love should find my restless soul in quiet grace,
Not built on logic, time, or borrowed trace,
I would choose you in the calm and stormy sea,
Not for who you try to be, but who you are to me.
Let the world define perfection cold and clear,

Their hollow standards disappear,
For in your flaws I find my truest home,
A sacred place where my heart knows home

I don’t need reasons scripted in stone,
My heart speaks truth in its own tone.

I love you just the way you stay,
No mask to wear, no part to change, no role to play,
Through every doubt and every scar you show,
You are the only light I know,
Whatever fate may choose to weave,
You’re the one my soul believes.

I don’t want mirrors shaping your design,
Or borrowed wings that never shine,
I breathe your laughter, soft and free,
A gentle storm inside of me,
Even when the night feels incomplete,
Your voice becomes my steady beat,
And if tomorrow breaks in blue,
I’ll still walk every road with you.

The future holds no promised view,
Yet I place every dream in you.

I love you just the way you stay,
No mask to wear, no part to change, no role to play,
Through every doubt and every scar you show,
You are the only light I know,
Whatever fate may choose to weave,
You’re the one my soul believes.

They speak of beauty carved in flawless glass,
But they never see the moments that last,
I see galaxies within your smile,
A universe worth every mile,
Your silent tears, your trembling breath,
Even your fears before the depth,
Are sacred verses in my song,
A place where I’ve belonged all along.

I love you in your quiet truth,
In every fragile trace of youth,
Not who the world demands you be,
But every breath that lives in me,
If joy or sorrow fills our days,
My heart remains, it never strays,
No storm could make me fall apart,
I’ll never regret this faithful heart.

I love you just the way you stay,
No mask to wear, no part to change, no role to play,
Through every doubt and every scar you show,
You are the only light I know,
Whatever fate may choose to weave,
You’re the one my soul believes.

If dawn should fade and stars depart,
Still your name lives in my heart,
Whatever comes, whatever through,
My only star will always be you.
