You came into my empty life,

After so many years alone,

You touch a tired and lonely heart,

That I’d thought had turned to stone.

 

You tore down the walls of loneliness,

That surrounded my dying heart,

You opened my eyes to love once more,

And gave my life a new start.

 

Refrain

You came from the heavens,

 And rescued me,

From the pool of darkness,

I was drowning in,

You threw me a line,

When others left me behind,

And made my life richer,

Than it’s ever been,

Is this the love I’ve been,

Searching to find.

 

I’ll never forget the first time we talked,

The first time I held your hand,

First time I held you close and we kissed,

First time you told me you understand.

 

You believe in me like no one has,

And seem to understand my pain,

You bring sunshine to a lonely life,

That was once filled with endless rain.

 

I hope the road we’re sharing never ends,

As we travel a new life together,

I want you always by my side,

Building memories we’ll share forever.

 

I promised you complete honesty,

Always try to give you nothing less,

My heart and mind are longing for you,

Filling the void of emptiness.
