When I looked into your eye

My feelings I could not defy

You said that this was fate

That you were my soul mate

That you and I were meant to be

And you would always stay with me

You would be always at my side

And I no longer had to hide

With you I felt like I could soar

I’d never felt like that before

I was always the one that stayed away

You brought me out of darkness and into the day

I was the flower hidden by shade

All alone you came to my aid

With you my petals became unfurled

You were the one who showed me the world

Loneliness I no longer had to fear

For you were what I held most dear

When I stood by you I felt so strong

For there I would always belong

You stayed with me until the end

You were more than just a friend

These are the words I wish I’d told

This is the secret I will always hold

So much feeling in each little word

This is what you should have heard

This one thing I hope you knew

For now and forever I love you
