The World That You Would Know

I saw that look upon your face
              You thought I did not see
The disappointment in your eyes
              Clearly meant for me

A vision of the future,
              It pressed into my brain
I know that I could have my way
             And that you’d remain

You’d regret your decision
             Though one that you would own
No matter the adventure
             You’d not leave me alone

That look I saw made me sad
             Clearly meant for me
To realize what I must do
             With no guarantee

My love is strong, though I am weak
             So, I must trust, let go
To open doors for you to seek
            The world that you would know
