My mother told me today
That her husband was first her friend
Then her lover, then my father
So as I sat and heard her say
That no matter where his path was lead
His purpose became us, together
And my mother's words struck deep into my heart
As the thoughts of you filled my head
I know that I found my way
I'm waiting for my life to start
I know what I see up ahead
And the only thing I want to say
is...
I love you.
So I contemplate my next step
And I consider the angles
As if it could be my last
The fears of life, into my head crept
But I know the truth about my angel
And from her radiant light, her love is cast
And with that love and grace
I hold on to all that I've come to know of her
And cherish the time we share
I close my eyes to see your face
And it gives me that feeling assured
But fear still being there that I'm scared
that...
I need you.
