My Reason

Were it only once would have been enough to change my world forever Were it only once would have been enough to drive away my sorrows Were it only once would have been enough to bring hope to my tomorrows If were it only once It would have been enough to wash away the many tears I cried Yes if it were only once It still would be enough to wash away the loneliness that lived inside If it had been just once Yes even if it had been just once you would have healed my broken spirit Bringing life and color to my world and everything within it If it had only been one time that you kissed my face as you told me that you loved me It would have been all that I ever needed throughout eternity If it were just that one time The stars would still shine just as bright the heavens would rain joy on me in daytime and at night Don’t you see ! Don’t you see ! Oh my god do you not see ? You took this broken man and with your love you rescued me You gave me hope when I had none You replaced my clouds with a shining sun You hung the moon in my evening sky Yes you, you are my reason why You are my everything

Thank you for the kind words Deb ! Sometimes it only takes a simple act to change someone’s day, their moment, their life and often we don’t recognize how significant an influence we have been.
