For so long I've been lonely

Drowning in my tears, soaking in misery

No one there to listen

Or help me face my deepest fears.

No one there to assure me

In times of doubt & confusion,

No one showed me rainbows

Every time I saw the rain.

No one there to care

And ease my broken heart,

No one to pick up the pieces

Every time I fell apart.

Then you came along

And took the time to know,

All the hurt and pain

That I tried hard not to show.

You took the time to realize

How much I've had to pay,

For every time I gave of me
There was something taken away.

You took the time to look inside

This heart as cold as stone,

You found that there was something there

No one else has ever known.

You found what I had been hiding

Brought it out to show the world,

That there was so much love inside

Of such an empty soul.

You knew what I was feeling

So you set my mind at ease,

Then you did the impossible -

You made me trust in love again.

So, now I'm going to take this time

To say "Thank You" for all you've done,

And hope you know I love you

More than anything, more than life itself.
