When You Believe

When you believe emotions are not just a women’s thing
When you believe a relationship is based on trust, truth and openness
When you believe intimacy is part of a sacred union 
When you believe a friendship is more than just communication

Let love guide you here
Let my eyes touch your soul
Let me be the one
Let us learn together
Let us dance in the sun

When you believe a kiss is the ingredient for passion 
When you believe holding hands is the beginning of a spiritual bond
When you believe in supporting the one you love is through a simple act of kindness
When you believe that compassion is not just through words but action

Let love guide you here
Let my eyes touch your soul
Let me be the one
Let us learn together
Let us dance in the sun

When you believe embracing your inner child helps to grow emotionally
when you believe jumping in a puddle while it’s pouring out is ok
When you believe in poetry of the heart is the intimacy of the soul 
When you believe that your heart beat is the pulse to life everyday

Let love guide you here
Let my eyes touch your soul
Let me be the one
Let us learn together
Let us dance in the sun

When you believe that through your eyes you can see your lover’s soul
When you believe that intimacy is not just a sexual thing
When you believe through the act of compassion we can heal a wounded heart
When you believe in forgiveness and are not afraid to cry

Let love guide you here
Let my eyes touch your soul
Let me be the one
Let us learn together
Let us dance in the sun

When you believe in everyday blessings
When you believe in the diversity of creativity
When you believe that gods love is the universal language
When you believe in the strength a family provides and its ties

Let love guide you here
Let my eyes touch your soul
Let me be the one
Let us learn together
Let us dance in the sun
