Powerless

No one else has brought about this emotion
Your love pulls me into another world with you
It tugs and lingers throughout my being
It instructs me that there's nothing I wouldn't do

For the sake of my sanity I listen to my body
I follow along with my feelings, I comply
The power it has over me is something strong
I am weak to overcome it and I would never deny

You tickle my heart strings with your love
It's an adventure to be along on the ride
Ecstatically wanting to be near you all the time
Wanting to be right by your side

For your love I am blessed forever
It brings me a happiness I hold near
Melodically the rhythm of your voice is with me
Registering a deep heart beat when it's you i hear
