The Gift
So many nights I lay here thinking
why can't I find someone, why can't I be happy too
In my mind I have a vision of what love is supposed to be.
I see it in the movies and hear it on the waves,
That's what I want, that's what I crave.
Often wonder what I've done that it can't happen for me.
They say to wait and when you least expect it love will come your way.
I've waited so long, I've wanted so deeply,
To love, to give, to care with my heart for this is what I long to give.
I've tried before and thought I'd found it only to have been hurt again.
I give so much I give my all but forever must just be too long...
Someone out there has to get it, someone has to need the same.
Send a sign, send a signal, then all at once it came.
From in my dark and desparation, a light it shown the way.
An Angel sent straight down from heaven was here to save,
The darkness fled, the light shown through and right then I knew.
This is the one, this is our time, for she had longed for me too.
From this day forth There'll be no other,
For we have vowed it to each other.
Myself I give not just a portion to my Angel dear...
You are a gift from God above that I shall hold forever.
She has my heart that I surrender and for me she gave the same.
Side by side we walk together but the hearts do beat as one.
There'll never be another day like those of dark and dreary ones.
