Tommy
It's late at night
Before the sun rises.
And I know you're home
Safe and sound.
I think about you,
Dream about you,
Whenever you're away.
For it is your heart's love
I hope I have found.
Before we met-
I knew no other
With such intensity,
Such a soul.
But now that I know you,
Now that we've met,
I know that I'm not alone
In this world so dark and cold.
Your smile
Brings me pure joy.
Your arms
Give me strength.
You're that perfect combination
Of man and boy.
Before you
I was never truly in love.
It was always just
Infatuation
With nameless faces
And empty hearts.
But now I know
What it means
When one says
one's "In Love"
For all I have to do
Is look into your eyes..
And see LOVE
Looking back at me.
Thank you, Tommy... Love, Elena
