Through every snow and every flame
I always hear you call my name
In the shadows of what's left
You stole my heart, they call it theft
For every soul and every tear
I love you without a fear
In the ocean or in the sky
I will watch you swim or fly
Let not go your sweet, sweet heart
Thus I shall love thy every part
Through the storm and in the rain
You always calmed my pain
Though the world may seem so cold
And thunder strikes as days grow old
Tornadoes swirl and send us far
I always know right where you are
Miles and distance mean not a thing
Although you are caged, I hear you sing
No bird in hand, nor rose in garden
Shall match the fruit of true love's bargain
Of your sweet oranges I have touched
And from your love, I've grown so much
My heart was lost in time and space
But then the tears fell from your face
I was lost and now I'm found
Of your love I was once crowned
Passion blooms in the strangest places
But back and forth, my love still paces
I walk the floor and shan't let go
For you are the best I shall ever know
In your eyes there lies the stars
They lead me back to where you are
Prayers transcend with help divine
I remember when you were mine
