Being Loved

Never did I believe I would find the love I sought
But that just goes to show that life isn’t as I thought
Love is here with me, I’m bathed in it’s crystal light
I’m held and renewed in love's sparkling delight
I knew that life was predictable I knew what I’d see
An endless stretch of nothings, an empty eternity
But then suddenly without me looking I found you
And my world changed it was no longer coloured blue

I was moving through my life not expecting anything
And now my soul has found love’s reviving spring
I’m refreshed and alive I’ve never felt like this before
So warmed, beloved and protected and I want more
Whenever you kiss me I’m flying through the air
And I know that this perfect joy, this love we share
There’s truth in you that creates peace within me
For I know that you don’t dabble in lies or duplicity

I thought that love wasn’t going to come my way
And if it did then I believed I didn’t need it anyway
I didn’t realise that love clears and brightens sight
Or that it shines and illumes the darkest of night
Now my world is changed I live in a different place
It’s as if I have finally joined the human race
Being loved by you makes my soul shine my heart sing
And loving you is beautiful you to me are everything
