Livingston - The Author

Darling I will be the wind behind your sails
I will be the one to tell your tales
I will be the one to hold your secrets
I will be your earth when all else fails

So if you’re ever scared to jump before me
Take the fear off of your face
Cause I will be the one to write your story
And I won’t forget a single page

But you could be the Author
Oh darling you could be the Author
Oh darling you could be the Author

I’ll begin by writing down your name
You and I will be the characters
We’ll meet by the seventh page
Suburban drama picture perfect in the frame
But by the seventh chapter things will never be the same

Cause 8th grade we met it wouldn’t be the last time
The suspense that I meet you in a past life
Heroes in our stories save the world like a passtime
But the road to happy endings ain’t a fast line

The epiphany in Chapter 22
Recurring theme of me living life without you
Some would call it tragic but it’s only just the start
Cause even fate couldn’t keep them apart

Darling I will be the wind behind your sails
I will be the one to tell your tales
I will be the one to hold your secrets
I will be your earth when all else fails

So if you’re ever scared to jump before me
Take the fear off of your face
Cause I will be the one to write your story
And I won’t forget a single page

But you could be the Author
Oh darling you could be the Author
Oh darling you could be the Author

So follow me through the page
Don’t pray for perfection
I won’t be the one to save you
From all your questions

I still see that you are brave
Despite the scars you hide
Don’t turn away from the night
Don’t you turn away from the night

Darling I will be the wind behind your sails
I will be the one to tell your tales
I will be the one to hold your secrets
I will be your earth when all else fails

So if you’re ever scared to jump before me
Take the fear off of your face
Cause I will be the one to write your story
And I won’t forget a single page

But you could be the Author
Oh darling you could be the Author
Oh darling you could be the Author
