Born taken

While she slept so calmly, he came into her dreams

And his loving soul, spoke gently into her ears

Tried to touch her hand but they were far apart

His journey's yet unfinished, the journey into her heart

"I'll tell you a secret" he said, "it's not all in vain

I'm with you every second; I feel your every pain

I'm sad with every sorrow, happy with every smile

And when I find you I won't, even let go for just a while

At times I was too jealous, but you just didn't know

I'm struggling to reach you, through heat and through snow

Gather tears and laughs, so we can share them one day

Then I'll be happy with your joy, and ease your hurt away

If I never get to find you, make sure you know I tried

And when you look into my eyes, you'll know I never lied

I might lose the way, but my heart will never be shaken

And I'll be waiting.. cause it was by you, that I was born taken

Take care of your heart for me, until I find the way

And until I come to reach you, I'll travel night and day

I'll tell you about my journey, and each time you had mistaken

Someone else to be the one, to whom you were born taken..."
