Analysis of When I Look At You



when I look at you
I don't see two
I see the one
that you've become
both crying the same tears
both sharing the same fears
two hearts with one beat
one path for both your feet
two voices with one song
one place where two belong
when I look at you
I don't see two
I see the one
that you've become
