^*^You're the sun that warms my face You're the winds that embrace You're the calmness the ocean sound brings You're the beauty of flowers in the spring^*^

^*^You've given me hope when I didn't have any You've given me forgiveness that I didn't deserve You've given me more than I could ever ask for You've even given me love when I didn't love you in return^*^

^*^You are my very best friend You are my soul mate to the end You are the love of my heart I know we will never part^*^

^*^So if you ever need me Know that I'll be there I want to love you the way you have loved me I want you to know how much I care ^*^

^*^No matter where I go or what I do I'll spend the rest of my life Showing how much I love you^*^

^*^I came to you with my heart in my hands..But you turned me away..I am trying so hard to understand
why you turned me away^*^

^*^Was I too tender and caring?..Were you too harsh and bold?..Was my love so real that it scared you
into running away in the cold?^*^

^*^You said our love cannot be real..So you turned me away..
You said you did not know how to feel..
So you turned me away^*^

^*^Can you see my heart breaking as you speak these words to me?..Can you see my tears falling
as you turn away from me?^*^

^*^I offered you my life..Yet you turned me away..
I would leave everything for you..
Yet you can turn me away^*^

^*^What else can I offer you..But my heart and my soul?..
They are all I own freely..They are yours entirely..
Please do not turn me away^*^

^*^As we search throughout life's journey..
For the never ending road..Our life is slipping by us
as each moment we go^*^

^*^Looking for the answers to why we are here..
While all the time the answer
is lying so near^*^

^*^We are here for each other to make the journey dear..
To cling to our togetherness..
As our time draws near^*^

^*^For as the road ends..As surely it will..
All remains are our memories..
That our journey did fill^*^

^*^The reflection of faces..Instilled upon our mind..
The journey was well worth..
Our moment in time^*^

^*^As each hour passes you are with me..In my thoughts..In my actions..And in my heart..The time seems so long now..
Since our sad farewell..How could we ever part?^*^

^*^You were my light..My angel..My eternal soul..I was your comfort..Your haven..when times were cold^*^

^*^When we were together..There was nothing we
could not do..Now..The hours seem endless..
Since I last saw you^*^

^*^Come home my love to my open arms..Where we will comfort each other from thisworld of harm..Together we are fearless..Together we are whole..My light..My angel
My eternal soul^*^

^*^The wondrous moment of our meeting..I well remember you appear..Before me like a vision fleeting,
A beauty's angel pure and clear^*^

^*^In hopeless ennui surrounding..The worldly bustle..To my ear..For long your tender voice kept sounding..
For long in dreams came features dear^*^

^*^Time passed..Unruly storms confounded Old dreams..And I from year to year..Forgot how tender you had sounded..
Your heavenly features once so dear^*^

^*^My backwoods days dragged slow and quiet..Dull fence around..Dark vault above..Devoid of God and uninspired..
Devoid of tears..Of fire, of love^*^

^*^Sleep from my soul began retreating..And here you once again appear..Before me like a vision fleeting..
A beauty's angel pure and clear^*^

^*^In ecstasy the heart is beating...Old joys for it anew revive..Inspired and God-filled..It is greeting
The fire..And tears..And love alive^*^
