Love Takes Hold

When your heart beats against my chest, our hearts align— as love takes hold. And we perceive life at its best, as intimate feelings unfold. We seek no answers as to why, since we met, we've never been bored. And neither of us can deny that upon Hope's wings—love has soared. I'm there for you—you're there for me, and forever, we stand as one. Unhindered by reality, our love keeps the blues on the run. A lifetime of dreams to explore, whispering secrets sweethearts share. And together—alone no more, we share a love that's true and rare. You're the half that makes my half whole— I am your soulmate, and you're mine. We have been blessed to share one soul, and one heart, till the end of time.
