The Bonds of Time

The bonds of time are ringing,
  how sweet I hear the bells.
  your memories are singing...
  to me the music swells.

  Oh how I hear your echo,
  your voice comes to my ear.
  I search for depth between us...
  the answer doth appear.

  The spirit of your soul
  illuminates my brain.
  It rings within me now...
  forever it shall remain.

  I thank you for your goodness,
  your tenderness so dear.
  we are becoming one...
  in unison this year.

  I sing the songs of Solomon,
  I sing the songs of praise.
  I marvel at your beauty,
  my voice will serenade...

  It's time to raise on high
  your echo of the past.
  I hear you now in time...
  you've come to me, at last.
