A Deeper Dimension Than Words
I was like a helpless child
incapable of giving love...
needing a gentle mother by his side
to care for his needs!
I was left alone and forgotten by all...
and feeling so miserible,
I clung to my faith and waited;
no, I didn't search for shallow things!
Everybody thought I had everything,
walked right by me and didn't see my agony;
nobody realized I needed company,
and I felt like a bird with a broken wing!
But unexpected miracles still happen today...
even in this age of greed and infidelity,
because unselfish love like kindness
has a deeper meaning than words!
You've given up your freedom
and changed this look of boredom;
you've opened up your loving arms...
forgetting my habits and my faults!
I have a new song to sing so joyfully...
to tell everyone you had compassion for me;
I have another reason to be grateful...
to give all of myself tenderly,
because unconditional love like kindness
has a deeper dimension than words!
