THERE WAS YOU

I’d made up my mind I wouldn’t try again;
had decided I was through with men.
I’d had enough of the heartache they’d put me through,
until I was taken by surprise, and then there was you.

You taught me to laugh again; taught me to love.
Now it’s only you that I constantly dream of.
Every word inspires me; I’m captivated by all you do.
The sparkle in my eyes is there because of you.

You were there to hold me; mine alone from the start.
You give me not only comfort, but also gave me your heart.
Now I can say “I love you”, and know you mean it too.
I’ve never known such contentment until there was you.
