Hope

Living free yet a prisoner in my mind
Knowing what its like be free and love
Without you locking the world out 
Blocking any emotion, wanting to feel but afraid to have feelings.

Out of the dark a shining beacon of hope
Drawn to you like a month to a flame
So close without fear of burning
As always  love and life is a price
I paid with my love my heart for yours

From then until now my love is there
I can't feel nothing but that first kiss
That day you swore to be mine 
My heart and soul rose to the stars 
The last the only I don't need a new wife

A gazillion stars in the sky each night 
Bright like the sun bringing my smile
Drawn to you from a million miles
Only one this night til the nights are gone
Your light is the star that leads me home

I found my love found my life 
Always and forever you're my wife
Forever and always my heart is yours
I'm happiest when you're near
But I'm happier just knowing you are there
