Where do I go
When all doors are closed?
What happens when I realize
Each person's smile was posed?
Each so quick to say
Exactly what I want to hear.
I need a "friend"
And suddenly you appeared.
A light from the darkness
You did emerge.
I guess my prayers
God heard.
You give so much
And expect nothing in return.
My heart from your soft flame
Has been scorched and burned.
Now branded by you
And grateful for this.
You took feelings from me
I do not miss.
Thank you for all you are
And everything you do.
I believe what you say
Is honest and true.
Put your faith in me
The way I have in you,
And I will make you happy
And I will Love you.
