Unsure of my footing, I was plunged headlong Into the streams of love Overwhelmed my lungs with sweet breath Of words gently spoken Gasped heart and soul Certain of my longing, I am diving deep Into the heights of joy Surprising my heart with the sights of dreams fulfilled Released spirit and mind This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative Works 3.0 United States License

I wanted to know, and you told me I wanted to go, and you took me I need to love, and you've loved me, day after day, year after year I needed to see just what you showed I needed to discover what you know I want to discover where we can go and what fork we're gonna follow it was quite a leap when you took me that deep like a diver watching the tide I saw you come in just in time you asked if I would dare then you took me there I thought I could see, and you shined here I thought I listened, and you taught me I was sure I was right, and then you winked Now I know how wrong I can be I looked for honey, found sweetness I looked for beauty, found it in a mess I looked for an answer, you said yes and I know my honey lies ahead it was quite a leap when you took me that deep like a diver watching the tide I saw you come in just in time you asked if I would dare then you took me there This work is licensed under...

the challenge is tough, and I'm doing ok i have all i need to do it my way and when it's all done, I think they'll say that everything is alright but if you were here, I'd be better if you were here, everything would be clearer side by side all through the day side by side all through the night if you were here what you do best i can only begin what i start, you can take to the end and together we can do it all again and again and everything will be the best so if you were here, I'd be better if you were here, everything would be clearer side by side all through the day side by side all through the night if you were here This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative Works 3.0 United States License
