The Future
When all was lost, I closed my heart but silently I prayed
For someone kind to come along and for me light the way
There was a darkness in my soul, a hollow emptiness
I needed devotion and true love to find my happiness
So many nights I sat alone to gaze up at the sky so far
Casting my wishes one by one upon each dancing star
Yearning for that which was lost, it seems an eternity
And that's exactly what I found and what you gave to me
The happiness I longed for, and someone I could confide
Never did you judge me, and my love I can not hide
I realized the best thing was you wanted me for me
And with you, forever, is where I want to be
Things still haven't waivered through the times gone wrong
It only made me happier and now I feel so very strong
I care so much about you, though at times we may seem unsure
If we get through the harder times, I know this will endure
I guess the part I shy from is, you're like a dream come true
I searched for someone special, and that brought me to you
I wanted to be loved so badly that deep inside it ached
I never thought I'd find that love, I only knew heartbreak
I'm asking you to do your best, for I can't ask for more
Of having patience with me, and that's all that I implore
I need to find myself again, just like I found you
For now the love I longed for is the love to get us through
For someone kind to come along and for me light the way
There was a darkness in my soul, a hollow emptiness
I needed devotion and true love to find my happiness
So many nights I sat alone to gaze up at the sky so far
Casting my wishes one by one upon each dancing star
Yearning for that which was lost, it seems an eternity
And that's exactly what I found and what you gave to me
The happiness I longed for, and someone I could confide
Never did you judge me, and my love I can not hide
I realized the best thing was you wanted me for me
And with you, forever, is where I want to be
Things still haven't waivered through the times gone wrong
It only made me happier and now I feel so very strong
I care so much about you, though at times we may seem unsure
If we get through the harder times, I know this will endure
I guess the part I shy from is, you're like a dream come true
I searched for someone special, and that brought me to you
I wanted to be loved so badly that deep inside it ached
