I remember the starlight of your passionate eyes
Even in the dark when all lights have gone out
I can see by the light of your resplendent love

Many times it feels as though I am alone
Blank and empty as a cavernous abyss
I remember the starlight of your passionate eyes

They guide me in the swirling emotions of loneliness  
Like the heavenly bodies that guide a ship
Even in the dark when all lights have gone out

All I want is to find my way to you
Though stumbling and failing often
I can see by the light of your resplendent love

Glint, gleam, wink, and flash
Come shine with utmost delight
Red, blue, and yellow
Sparkle with stained glass essence
And scatter your emotion

Light refracting gem
Dazzle me with your beauty
You color my life

You say I’m your rock
Your hero, your champion
I think my cape tore

My heart sinks as I say goodbye once again
Endless loop of loss and ecstasy repeats
You're so very far away and yet always near
I think I could not love you more
And yet your smile always makes more room
I'm at my peak and yet it's never enough

My heart is full, so fill it again

Everyday I seem to find more about you to love
Wondrous spiral of aroma and color
Dizzying display of your beautiful essence
With the clarity of perfectly cut diamonds
Is there ever an end to your facets?
Does this ocean have a depth that one can't descend?
Always finding ever higher summits
Never seeing enough of your golden valleys

My heart is full, so fill it again

Only one thing I know to do
Gaze upon you with my soul, and gaze again
Never stopping until my journey finds its end
Enough will never be enough when it comes to you
I must accept this truth I know
And be content to be always overwhelmed

My heart is full, so fill it again

My heart smiles bright
At the light scattering gleam
Of your topaz eyes

Even missing you
My heart is made so warm
By the light of love
