“My Darling, Dearest”

Last night, I was in the arms of an old love.
My darling, dearest, I longed for it to be your arms.
While I was comforted, I longed for you, my love.

I’ve been afraid to take the chance with my heart,
But now I know that my heart belongs to you.
My heart is scarred, but you can heal its wounds.

In the arms of an old love, I found the courage
To take the chance to open my heart again.
I’ll take the risk, my darling, dearest, on you.

One day, my darling, dearest, we’ll be together;
Your heart and soul will be mine, and mine yours.
I’ll be there for you, forever, my darling, dearest.
