Eric

Sitting here together, tangled on the couch

You crack a little joke and the laughter spills right out

It's the quiet little moments, the magic in the room

With your sense of humor chasing away the gloom

You've got a way of smiling that puts my mind at ease

A tender kind of rhythm, a gentle kind of peace

Oh, Eric, you're the other half of me

A love so big it’s harder to speak than just to breathe

You make me feel it, baby, right down to the bone

Loved through and through, like I've finally come home

Words could never hold it, they’d only fall apart

But you've got a golden soul, and you've got my whole heart

Take me back to summer, twenty-twenty-one

The third of July, when the waiting was all done

That very first kiss, the spark that lit the wire

A rock and roll romance taking us much higher

Rolling down to Des Moines, the music turned up loud

Singing to Disturbed, lost inside the crowd

Oh, Eric, you're the other half of me

A love so big it’s harder to speak than just to breathe

You make me feel it, baby, right down to the bone

Loved through and through, like I've finally come home

Words could never hold it, they’d only fall apart

But you've got a golden soul, and you've got my whole heart

When the world gets heavy and the shadows start to creep

I just need your arms around me, pulling me in deep

Safe inside your embrace, the only place I know

Where the fire always burns and the embers always glow

'Cause Eric, you're the other half of me

A love so big it’s harder to speak than just to breathe

You make me feel it, baby, right down to the bone

Loved through and through, I am never on my own

Words could never hold it, they’d only fall apart

But you've got a golden soul, and you've got my whole heart
