You Cleaned Up My Dirty Past

Can I speak so true and free About all you have done for me You gave my life a new meaning Like you did a thorough cleaning Of my past --threw it away So I know that a new day Will begin and start with you There is nothing you won't do To prove how much love you will Give me to climb up a hill Right up to the very top Where you'll catch me if I drop Into my past memories Thinking of the history That has kept me in turmoil Leaving my heart full of soil From all the abuse I took But then I just have to look Into your eyes and I will break Out of this haze--glad to take All the love you want to give So I can and always live With a new hope and this joy Since you became my savior boy

Nicely written about someone who has done more than just a janitorial task for you. Good descriptiveness and rhyming here.
