You Are Me

In you, I see a mirror,
Which reflects all that I am,
So much thoughtful clarity,
Sometimes, so hard to understand
I see strong passion and anger,
I see a powerful love and danger
One glimpse into your eyes...

I see why you could never be a stranger

You are me,
And I am you
Neither of us has,
Anything left to prove
I am you,
And you are me,
Bound together, eternally...
Each one sets the other free...

The mask you wear, it haunts me,
It reminds me of my own
And what we both need to realize,
Is that we will never be alone
I see those eyes of fire,
I see such pain and desire,
And every time you look my way...

My soul just climbs higher

You are me,
And I am you
Neither of us has,
Anything left to prove
I am you,
And you are me,
Bound together, eternally...
Each one sets the other free...

I see the past...
The present and the future...
All morphed into one
So many possibilities,
And we don't know which will come
I see the frustration!
I see the fear that we are weak...!
Joined together for all time,
Each one is stronger than they think...

You are me,
And I am you
Neither of us has,
Anything left to prove
I am you,
And you are me,
Bound together, eternally,
Each one sets the other free...
You are me,
And I am you,
We need no reason why,
We don't have to choose
I am you,
And you are me,
Each one is what the other needs...
Each one in the other believes...
