Declaration

David Cook · David Cook [2008]

I'm taken just the way you are

Imperfect words inside a perfect song

I feel you closer than you are

But I've been waiting far too long, too long



It's my declaration

To anyone who's listening

You're my inspiration

As I stand alone against the world

'cause you love

And you bleed

And you stole my soul to set me free

It's my declaration



Do you care what I believe?

('cause I'm still breathing)

Or that I wear your heart upon my sleeve

Sometimes I think you never knew

The only truth I see is you, is you



It's my declaration

To anyone who's listening

You're my inspiration

As I stand alone against the world

'cause you love

And you bleed

And you stole my soul to set me free

It's my declaration



Are there any words to say

That I would ever mean enough?

When the light runs from the day

Will the darkness be too much?

Will I ever be enough?



It's my declaration

To anyone who's listening

You're my inspiration

As I stand alone against the world

'cause you love

And you bleed

And you stole my soul to set me free

It's my declaration



So tell me you can hear these words tonight

It's my declaration
