Hold me
don’t let me
down
let me feel
all the wonders
that
do abound.
Hold me
show me the way
guide me
down the path.
Send me
on my way
to
love
from heaven
comes.
Love
from all I loved
yesterday
and
hope
in my future
those
I love today.

Tenderly be
the one I need
No questions
asked
No what if I fail
just be
Tenderly
Tenderly be.

Hear my heart
beating
beating sweetly
Not asking anything
just
quietly beating
beating
beating my entire life
It beats
oh
so sweetly.

I met my love
A long time ago
And
Far, far away
On this day
This
Valentine’s Day.
We’ve travelled
Thru life
Together
Living, loving, laughing
Maybe
A little fighting
Whatever
Life brought us
On that particular day.
Looking back
I smile and say
Life has been good
Since
Way back
When I met my love
On
Valentine’s Day.

Hold me
still
hold me close.
Let me
not
see
the sadness
I fear
the most.
Let me
hear
your words
like angels sing.
Let me
know
no harm can come
when
I hear
what your heart
does bring.
Let me
feel
your warmth
embracing me
holding
me
keeping me
from
all danger
real
and
what I do perceive.
Hold me
hold me close
I do ask
of
thee.

We have travelled
far away from
Home
We have seen
exotic places
filled with
wonder, beauty
and
exquisite creatures
as
we roamed far
far from
Home
But nothing
is
as precious
as
Home
Those we have
here
right here
at
Home
Those we love
who love us
who greeted us
with
great happiness
and
joy
when we arrived here
right here
at
Home
So pleased
to be
here
right here
at
beautiful, exquisite
Home.

No one knows
Nor
Do they tell
Why the world turns
And
Doesn’t fall
Into hell.
Maybe it has
Maybe
There we are
No one knows
Nor
Do they tell.
over again.

Cautiously
I move forward
Cautiously
Make no mistake
take each step with purpose
Cautiously
Let the beginning
be the end
The last step the first
Then
and
only then
Will you understand
the universe
Cautiously.

I won’t know
what you know
Nor
See
what you see
I can’t
hear
what you hear
Still
Still we can live
in
perfect harmony.
