Thy hand I take to have and hold and all the land to shout in praise For love is not a stranger to be feared Thy love I wish to keep as mine till stars do fall and darkness stays For love is but a spirit to be freed Yet thee to feel with silk intent triumphant tolls the mission bells For love is delicate in tone When next beside thy daydreams sent of melting suns this vision wells For love is harmony to hone Rivers run free into the sea a swirling tide of azure hue For love is every color, every sigh Mountains stand tall, majestically as do the trees, singing of you. For love to lift the heart and spirit high Thy hand to take as fears succumb beneath this touch of velvet deep For love is soft upon the listen in Within the meadow fawn and plumb in secret smile of flesh tone sleep For love is will find it's way now and again The softness of cool flowing breeze caresses your shoulders and face For love is but the very breath As you lie in wait of this man upon the grasses with such grace For love is ever pure in depth And as I walk this path unworn to find the love I yearn to hold For love is not a stranger to be feared I shall bring a gardens bouquet; if I might come, might be so bold For love is but a spirit to be freed |

And as I walk this path unworn to find the love I yearn to hold For love is not a stranger to be feared I shall bring a gardens bouquet; if I might come, might be so bold For love is but a spirit to be freed You two done good! This flowed so easily and naturally. Really love that last line! |
