Last Night, I Doubted

Last night, I doubted, though, I shouldn't, After all I promised and swore I wouldn't. It came from nowhere, out of the dark, And the pain I felt tore at my heart. Lying there alone, I wondered again, is this love we share, love without end? Like a newborn child lost and alone, I cried for your touch and a place called home. Just one chance to show you is all that I need, God, what would I do if you should leave? Reaching for your picture in the still of the night, unleashed, were the tears I was trying to fight. Never before had I felt so afraid, as I did watching the night turn into day. There in the night, it was easy to see, without your love, I would rather not be. What would be the use to your picture I asked, to live without you, not a day would I last. You have become so special, important and dear, a lifetime of heartache was made perfectly clear. For my heart is yours, and every beat is true, now and forever, I will always love you. Last night, I doubted, though, I said I wouldn't, but to live without you, honey, I couldn't
