What would you say right now, to me, if we are face to face....
Would you think we’d been together in another time and place?
Or would you be like all the rest, and toy with my heart,
and make me think I’m special, just until the time we part.
Would you say to me those precious things, that only lovers say...
Or tell me what I long to hear, so you can have your way.
If I reveal what’s in my heart, and lay it in your hand,
would you use it against me...or just love and understand?
I know that loving someone is the greatest gift on earth,
but I want somone in my life who knows what I am worth.
I want to love, and trust again...for love means all to me,
but I can’t love just ANY man, there’s only one for me.
The one I want is special...he’ll know what’s in my heart,
and miss me when the world crowds in, and keeps us two apart.
He’ll be the kind of man who knows that love is all that matters,
And hold me tight within his arms when my world is all in tatters.
The promises he’ll make to me, he’ll never deign to break,
and take upon his shoulders, all that I would...for HIS sake.
He’ll give himself completely, and do so all his life.
And feel no shame in saying to the world I am his wife.
If God grants me the miracle of such a love as this,
I’d cherish him for all my life, and seal it with my kiss.
My vow to him of honor, would stand for all of time,
and he would know that I am proud to tell the world...he’s mine
