Listen
If you could listen to my heart
You’d hear that I’ve been searching for you
I’ve been looking forever
From way before time
For a piece that’s been missing
For some peace of mind
If you could explore my soul
You’d find I’d wait forever to be with you
I’ve waited so very long
And tremble when touched
My spirit needs calming
It needs to love you so much
If I could touch your senses
I might feel what you know
My mind wants to be one with
Your thoughts and beliefs
I want to know everything
Every love, joy and grief
If I could shape our destiny
I’d create a world we’ve only dreamed of
So gently and with great care
My hands would transform
All our fears and frustrations
To strengths now reborn
When I look into your mind
Through your brilliant eyes I realize
I see hunger and longing
To love and to be loved
I ache to be everything
You’ve ever dreamed of
