PARADISE WITH YOU

True love's the gift which God has given
To man alone beneath the heaven:
It is not fantasy's hot fire,
Whose wishes soon as granted fly;
It liveth not in fierce desire,
With dead desire it doth not die;
It is the secret sympathy,
The silver link, the silken tie,
Which heart to heart and mind to mind
In body and in soul can bind.
It is...........Paradise.

There'll be days when you are lonely,
wasting hours, lost in doubt.
There'll be bouts of insecurity,
listening, as your soul cries out.

There'll be distance when you lose your way,
needing faith, to fight your fears.
There'll be longing for that sun filled day,
when love, sheltered you from tears.

There'll be moments you spend wrenched with pain,
in storms, you can't control.
There'll be seasons when you seek some peace,
a place, where you are whole.

There'll be nights when you desire someone,
to help soothe, and justify you.
There'll be dreams throughout eternity,
look there, my love still guides you.
