Taking you Home

Many thing has happened
And there shall be many more
We can hardly know
What's worth living for

When I was but a child
So young, so helpless, so pure
I used to think of achieving love
As a chore

It's hard not to contemplate
When I see you in your beauty
You remind me so of what I used to be
Your flowery rose petals falling

Tresses so calm
So gentle and true
How can one be so lucky
To possess a soul as you

Your hues shine bright
In the mid morning day
How glad I would be
If you'd come and stay

But all life holds mysteries
Some are old, some are new
One thing I know
Is that you're being held there
Not physically
But by the rhythms of your heart

Oh, he'll say he loves you
But, I tell you, he lies!
One day you'll wake up
And find me at your side

How cold be the land
In its bleak morning rays
How tired be the soul
That I need with me

The child in me
Whimpers and sighs
You will be my only love
My only life, my only warmth

As the seasons change
And new rays replace old
How could I wonder
Why your heart has grown cold?

I can change you
I believe it in complete
He won't even know what's hit him
Until it's too late
