and I adore you

and I adore you
I am here for you
I say it again as if you never knew
everything I do is about loving you

but there was a time when I sang this song to the world
and I sing it again because maybe someone can relate
too often love is met with anger and fingers curled
it doesn't have to be that way, it is not to late
this is a song from the time all I did was
sit around and wait

time seems to stand still when I sit lonely
longing for someone to love
everyone knows the feeling but no one knows mine
what I'm dreaming of

and it doesn't matter if everyone was the same
I can not touch what you are feeling inside
and you can not really comprehend mine
so why would you want me to hide

does it make you feel uncomfortable
to see someone so vulnerable
is my hunger to love and be loved
something you don't like?

would you rather I go to church or somewhere else
so you can put your feelings back up on the shelf
let's make a deal, I won't tell you what to do
and you can ignore me as I ignore you

we all have our reasons to live
and mine is to love and be loved
that's all I want from this life
and I hope you find all you dream of

maybe if you do you will understand
all I had to do was hold out my hand
and suddenly someone was standing there
to make all the loneliness disappear

and everything changed because I opened my eyes
I saw through my fears and doubts - they were based on lies
the human weakness that is so revered in this world
is the source of the anger and the fingers curled

love makes you strong
if you want to be strong
but if you don't
you won't

then this next thought crossed my mind
I can leave the world behind
and live exactly as I want to be
for I believe in love and love is free

and that's when my love came to me
and now my love is all I want to see
if that makes me blind then blind I shall be
but I'll leave this song for you or posterity
and I am happy singing these next lines endlessly

and I adore you
and I live for you
life is complete now, I love and I am loved
you know this is all that I ever dreamed of

and I adore you
I am here for you
I say it again as if you never knew
everything I do is about loving you

and I adore you
and I live for you
life is complete now, I love and I am loved
you know this is all that I ever dreamed of

and I adore you
I am here for you
I say it again as if you never knew
everything I do is about loving you

(repeat endlessly)
