It's clear to me that I can't depend on myself.
When I make my own plans they always fall through.
I get the wrong kind of Idea and the colors turn blue.
And it consumes me until nothing else is true.

I need to be patient and not to rush things.
For the devil is always seeking to destroy it.
But I'm on the right path and there's no turning back.
To fill my heart with love and grace and never to lack.

I'm now learning not to live with a heavy heart.
To nail it to the cross and make a new start.
It's only the beginning no need to fall apart.
To take a new step in the quest of my heart.

My feelings for you have never changed.
After all these years they remain the same.
When we met I was in the midst of my storm.
But I will be patient in this time of reform.

I have to be strong because my heart is at stake.
I will hold my hand out as long as it takes.
To have you back one day I will always stay true.
In this whole wide world there is only one you.
