Ballad for My Love

by Bill Turner   Jul 24, 2006


Love is a feeling
Washing over me
Cleansing my soul
Setting me free

Bound by self imposed bonds
Trapped in a world of sorrow
No hope for a glorious day
You showed me a tomorrow

Your lips giving me forever love
Breaking the chains that gripped me tight
Your compassion nurturing my dark soul
Chasing away the long, dark night

It tries to creep back in at times
Icy fingers clutching at my heart
Ripping at the foundation of my soul
Wanting to undermine our wonderful start

Bound by self imposed bonds
Trapped in a world of sorrow
No hope for a glorious day
You showed me a tomorrow

Bound by self imposed bonds
Trapped in a world of sorrow
No hope for a glorious day
You showed me a tomorrow

The warmth of your love driving away the chill
I can see the light that guides us and our love
There may be moments of darkness before me
We will make it as we are guided from above

Bound by self imposed bonds
Trapped in a world of sorrow
No hope for a glorious day
You showed me a tomorrow
Giving me all your love
Taking away the sorrow
