Soft candlelight

by Beautiful Tragedy   Aug 10, 2015


You take my hand in yours,
And whisper in my ear
You say the words so softly
So only I can hear

A gentle kiss on the forehead
You make it soft and sweet
Your hand caresses my face
And our lips began to meet

One and one we mesh together
You belong with me; I belong with you
I pull you tight into a hug
Because there's nothing else I can do

You smile and I stop breathing
You seem to have that effect on me
Not only are you everything I've ever wanted
You are everything I've ever wanted to be

My heart's in my throat as I try to tell you how I feel
But I can't find the words to say
I never thought we'd get this far
I've loved you since the first day

In the soft light of the candles,
I can feel your eyes on me,
There's nobody else that could make me feel like this,
There's nobody else with whom I want to be.

You make me smile and you make me happy
You keep me safe at night
And there is no place I'd rather be
The with you here, sitting in the soft candlelight.
