Until You Came Along

As emptyness beats on my door I try to word a song. It's now so clear I'd naught to say until you came along. It's true, I was a most small man, pretending I was strong; a portrait of my own flawed self, until you came along. I've spent a life apart your love in but a single night, while thoughts devoured memories of everything delight, and daylights' conflict generates new fears to face tonight while love demands I think upon what I know is right. The secret that I'd loved to keep, the one love only knows, was oh so far beyond my reach until you came along.
