When Love

On a long and winding road,
I traveled all alone.
I did not know the road I was on,
But I knew it would take me home.

Every turn and bend I took,
I had a new sight to see.
When out of the blue I startled to find,
A sight that made me look.

Another, it seemed, was on the road,
He was walking in my path.
I did not know why he was there,
On this my road to home.

He did not stop, or change his pace,
He simply trudged along.
I wanted to slow but was afraid,
Until I saw his face.

I knew just then why he was here,
Behind me on this path.
He was on his way home too,
And I had nothing to fear.

God is the one that sent us here,
To travel on this path.
When love has found you, it will be,
Something you hold most dear.
