The Second Time Around

I wish that I could take you there

To the place where living bends

The place where time stands still

and love it never ends

Where every kiss tastes sweeter

And every touch is warm

Where all I know is resting

In the beauty of your storm

To listen to your breath

And to feel you on my skin

The place where all is broken

Is the best place I have been

And in your times of hurting

I’ll be the one to hold your hand

And take you there with me

into that long-awaited land

I never thought I’d feel it

Until I fell for you again

The love that I have saved

for my one and only friend

So trust in me once more

And I will not let you down

I’ll mend your wounded heart

The second time around
