After years of endless fear
When agony is always near
The path to take is so unclear
Really I just need you here.

And when I see your familiar face
Your comforting words fill empty space
My life would be a different place
If not saved by your amazing grace.

Our eyes lock, taking me back
To a happy place where there's no black
You shelter me from ongoing attack
And put my whole life on track.

I'm grateful for your loving squeeze
When I'm down and on my knees
Hoping to get left to freeze
Awakened by your gentle pleas.

While I'm sitting in the dark
Alone where silence left its mark
Peaceful as a singing lark
I hear your footsteps across the park.

You put my pieces back together
Held my hand through darkest weather
Wished we always would be together
But our hearts live on forever and ever.
