Take Me To That Place

Take me to that place where all my dreams come true
Where love flutters about and is ever new

Take me to that place where I forget to cry
Where delightful pleasures bring contented sigh  

Take me to that place where I’m forever young
Where my heart sings the songs for years left unsung

Take me to that place where fears cannot abide
Where fantasies frolic and thrive by your side

Take me to that place where passion is set free
Where nothing is denied but is meant to be 

Take me to that place of surrender and release
Where longings unfulfilled will finally cease

Take me to that place where life is promised sweet
Where peace, joy and laughter each day I can greet

Take me, my love, take me, I’m faint and forlorn
I promise in taking, you will be reborn.

You never cease to amaze. I really would like to go to that place. Btw, I heard you singing "Unforgettable" on Drake's show you don't have to keep a song in your heart. Your singing voice is quite soothing. You could still rock little babies to sleep.

HEY, JT....I LOVE singing. I sing in church...solos, quartets, duets and chorales. My daughter has a few songs on youtube. SHE has a lovely voice. I've written two lullabies for Shereen. Words and lyrics all mine! She loves them and even now, when she's 19..I'll sing them now and again. Perhaps I'll post a link someday. I was just goofing off on the show, but thanks for the lovely post. You are SO sweet.
