My Heart You Own

Deep 
inside
Your 
eyes 
I 
looked
Saw 
my 
world,
Got 
my 
heart 
hooked
I 
looked 
at 
your 
face
And 
saw 
it 
glow
Till 
the 
stars 
above
Had 
nothing 
to 
show

From 
that 
moment
I 
took 
your 
hand
It 
felt 
so 
good
I 
could 
hold 
it
And 
hold 
it
For 
all 
time
Till 
at 
time's 
end
I 
return 
to 
the 
sand

When 
I 
walked
Into 
your 
world
Into 
the 
embrace
Of 
your 
heart
I 
wanted 
to 
spend
My 
whole 
life 
there

I 
have 
seen 
you 
step
Into 
the 
wicked 
night
My 
hope 
is 
you 
will
Hold 
not 
another 
knight
It's 
difficult 
this
For 
me 
to 
say
That 
I 
can't 
stand
As 
my 
heart 
you 
slay

The 
darkness 
there
Is 
not 
slight
But 
I 
pray 
the 
moon
Will 
dare 
to 
shine
That 
the 
starry 
glory
Will 
be 
smooth 
and 
fine

But 
if 
hold 
the 
knight
You 
say 
you 
may
Just 
do 
not 
take
His 
cup 
of 
wine
Love 
can 
wrestle 
With 
death 
they 
say
And 
mine 
will 
slay
The 
pain 
I 
pray

Darkness 
has 
filled
My 
heart 
it's 
true
Yet 
of 
tomorrow
I 
have 
not 
a 
clue
But 
there's 
an 
end 
To 
every 
journey
And 
a 
trophy 
For 
every 
tourney

For 
it's 
the 
nature
Of 
time 
to 
roll
And 
the 
delight
Of 
hearts 
to 
prowl
If 
I 
be 
away
That 
day 
you 
return
Just 
do 
not
Stand 
to 
mourn
And 
if 
near 
I 
be
When 
you 
return
Take 
my 
heart 
back
For 
my 
heart 
you 
own
