I Know My Place

Traveled all around the world
Places far and near
Always imagined of the perfect place
Where someone would hold me dear

Traveled deep within my soul
To confront my darkest fears
It seems that stormy weather
Always kept me oh so far away

From seeing a place of beauty
That is neither near nor far
For it’s a place in time
Where love unfolds

Upon thy lips, 
I do place thee a kiss
A smile I surely see
I know my place

Beside thee
