Inside My Life - Annie Haslam

Holding on to yesterday

Meant all the world to me

Finding out that you exist

Has made a clearer day to see

Only this morning

When I realised

Sun shining through

My window open wide

Feelings that held my heart

Close to all your smiles

Living in an empty space

Surrounded by broken lies

How my meaning had been lost

Until I found you in my eyes

How could my spirit

Free itself from doubt

Holding a dream inside

That should be out

Freer than all the streams

That have flowed to the sea

If there’s a moment

That belongs to me only

It must be now you are here

Inside my life

And if I can be forever

In the closeness of you

Then I’ll stay

As a shadow on your mind

Left for your memories to find

Looking into sleepy eyes

Gazing across my view

Knowing that tomorrow brings

A day containing one less fool

Finding the answer

Lying in your love

Carries on living

Now that there’s enough

Happiness to be found

Sharing time with our lives

If there’s a moment

That belongs to me only

It must be now you are here

Inside my life

And if I can be forever

In the closeness of you

Then I’ll stay

As a shadow on your mind

Left for your memories to find
