Salvation

You don't have to wonder
  or think that its strange 
Fore time will continue to move
  so the seasons must change
First the of the nights
  then the change of the leaves
'Till we're caught in the life 
  from the webs that we weave
Not being a man who will fuss
  we tend to let things roll
Until we get stuck in a spiral 
  & things are out of control 
It's really undescribable
  how it all happened so fast
Watching all of my dreams
  become a thing of the past
It began by attacking my joy
  slowly dimming my light
'Till it had stolen my resolve
  & the will left to fight
Having lost so completely 
  thinking I must be to blame
I was ready to cash in my chips
 & check out of the game
Then you crossed my path
  & took hold of my heart
Putting an end to the misery 
So " true lovin" could start
Now where this road leads 
  there's no way to tell
But, I know you are my salvation 
  that saved me from hell
And the amazing way you love me
  that's just conformation 
That I finally get my shot
  toward the dream I've been chasin
