Come Take My Hand

Come take my hand
And lead it to thy breast
Where I may lay my head
And listen to thy heart

Come take my hand
And lead it to the fire in thy belly
Where I may love thee
With tenderness and passion

Come take my hand
And never let it go
That I may forever hold thee
And ever whisper words of love

Such tender words of love and passion. Great write. I'm happy I added a little brightness to your day. You have certainly added a little romance to mine. Love, Robin
