Kevin Carlson: Lyrics / Music

Sometimes I think that I could live forever
And never touch the heart of AnnMarie
She keeps it hidden well, inside the fear that she has come to feel.

I know she has the courage of a dreamer
She sets her course and never seems to fail
And in her winds of doubt, she bravely pushes on despite the storm.

No one could ever think of gaining entry
And stand to brave the heart she keeps inside
She is distant and amused, tired and confused in her own stride.

She has touched so many lives but never stops to see
Wishes she could show herself, but chooses secrecy.

I know that I won't live to see forever
And may never touch the heart of AnnMarie
The more I feel her fear, I'm startled by its brilliance
Yet I rush to fill the void that she leaves with her distance
And I realize
Her heart is touching me.
