Burning Love

You know me, like the moon knows the stars, With a gentle glistening that erases Every thought of fear, every ache, every care… You know me in ways I can’t explain – With your love, you make me feel – you change My darkness to light, my worry to calm, My yearnings to assurance that every dream Every hope – will become a promise, assured By the music, the rhythm of a love so beautiful So true that nothing on earth could destroy The brilliance of this feeling, this affection – The kiss of your smile, the twinkling in your eyes The wonderful inside you – that makes me so sure, With you, because of you… I am filled with a joy that can’t be described, A music that never subsides, A light that never leaves my heart, A wonder that refuses to depart. Because of you, my love – I know a freedom, a grace More wonderful than any feeling I’ve known, More perfect than any thought or hope, More elated than any miracle, any yearning… Because of you, my love – I know a love that is still burning Long after the years have taught me that feelings, Flames of desire – feelings afire… will someday be quenched Because of you, my love – this fire won’t be overshadowed By fears, tears or years – it is forever burning with a brilliance That inspires, remembers, stirs up the sweetest feeling… With you, love – there are passions and pleasures, a lasting yearning
