I used to look at you from across the room
when you were unaware
of how very much I wanted to touch you,
or that I was even there.
Listening to your laughter...
wishing your love could be mine.
Wishing our hearts could beat as one...
wishing our lives could intertwine.
The road for us to be together
was a long, uncertain route.
But we've finally reached the same crossing...
now I know what true love's about.
Sometimes we become afraid...
not knowing exactly where we are...
but knowing we're here together
will, hopefully, take us far.
We often take a perfect night
and fill it with words we don't need.
But our hearts push the words aside
and on our love we feed.
And so frequently the road we walk upon
fills our hearts... yet empties our souls.
Only when I feel your body next to mine
am I ever completely whole.
We can't always have picket fences
to protect us from life's harms.
But nothing in this world can penetrate
the security found inside your arms.
Even though some in this life say
that "nothing lasts forever",
there are some bonds of love
that absolutely nothing can sever...
Like times when we're together...
even when we're apart...
times when all I have to hold
are the memories in my heart...
Memories of your kiss...
a promise of things to follow.
Days & nights we'll spend together
looking forward to each tomorrow.
Everything that you give me now
is all I've ever dreamed of.
I'm frozen in time... my life thawed only
by your inconceivable love.
Nobody has ever loved me
the special way you do.
And I'll never love anyone else in life
the way that I LOVE YOU. ©
