The wonder of love grows deep within
magically appears like the dew at dawn
eyelash of the sun peeking behind the mountain
petals of a red rose smiling in the morn

the wonder of love taps you on the shoulder
creeping in the night.. a shadow
whispering like the wind in the dark
prism of a snowflake upon your window

the wonder of love kisses you on the cheek
like the fragrance of lavender rain
the first leaf blushing in the autumn
clouds of mandarin orange at sunset

the wonder of love is a magic wand
touching the secret places of your heart

Once upon a time there was a light in my life, now theres only love in the dark, There's nothing I can do, a total eclipse of the heart.

"like the fragrance of lavender rain"

What a beautiful way to describe the rain!

What is that you express in your eyes? It seems to me more than all the words I have read in my life.
