Long ago...
When my heart was young and tender,
Before the pain of lost love made it cold;
Back when it was easy to surrender...  heart and soul
I gave a piece of my heart
for you to hold.

As the years went by...
There were pieces crushed by others.
Sometimes dying was the easy thing to do.
My heart turned hard in the hands of selfish lovers
But there was still the tender part
I gave to you.

Every road led back
to Me and You
It takes alot of lonely nights
to make a dream come true.

Giving in to love again
was unexpected.
Long ago I decided I could live without the pain.
But a part of my heart
was well protected... all these years...
You held it close to your heart
and finally eased my fears.

As time went by...
My broken heart was mended.
Every day I thank the Lord for you.
We both prayed
for a love like God intended.
A dream that seemed it never would come true.

Every road led back
to Me and You
It takes alot of lonely nights
to make a dream come true.

So many lonely people
Praying for someone.
We both know the pain they're going through.
So many lonely people
Praying for someone
I don't know why but somehow our prayers got through...
I've got you
Dreams do come true.

"It takes alot of lonely nights

I'm so glad your dreams came true but I've noticed how they always seem to - for other people.  Enjoyed the read.

Aww, another sweet touching one ... sniff sniff, honk honk. But now I'm smiling.
Wonderful to see such devotion, and sadly so rare .. Many blessings to you and your love mon ami.
