Song for Thomas

He leads me gently by the hand
and takes me through the night,
and fills me up with love and song
by twinkling candlelight.

So open to my love and yet
hiding from my sight,
and turns his face away from me
protesting without fight.

Envelopes me within his glow
and opens up his heart,
revealing more and more each time
although its just the start.

And sharing joys and pains are just
the way that it will be.
But sorrows halved is how it is
our love will set it free.

The miracles are always there
belief is all it takes,
and then my knight, my love will mend
it's written in our fate.

So now my lord, our voice will blend
and intertwine as one
and calm the fears that scare us both
our love has made us join.
