Mated

Everyone asks
Are we some kind of lovers?
Everyone asks what you're doing with me
I know this is not what they want
They're afraid you've been blinded
But I already know how it's going to be

If anyone should ask
Say we're mated
For as long as this life lasts
We are mated
Why else would you be here right now
And you know we'll still be here tomorrow

Nobody else understands what I'm doing
Nobody else makes me act in this way
And because they can't comprehend
What we mean to each other
They won't leave you alone
So you know what to say

I hold you in my heart
'cause we're mated
In a very special part
We are mated
Why else would I be here right now
And you know I'll still be here tomorrow

I see things far ahead, maybe light
Maybe beautiful children
I don't have words I'm thinking of
But it's way beyond what they call love
