I’ll hold you
Til my heart burns out
My lips not speak
And
My eyes won’t cry.
Then and only then
Will I let you go
Free
To be in eternity.
I’ll still be there
And
Together we’ll share
A love so strong
Not a word or a universe
Can keep us apart.
For you, you see
Will always be
A burning
A burning in my heart
For me.

Tenderly, I think of you
For the world was right
When I could hold you
With no forsaken thoughts
On my mind
As we laughed and talked
And oh so tender
Were those thoughts.
Tenderly, I think of you
You were my world
You gave me life
You showed me how
To navigate throughout
Any cursed strife
To hold on, to believe
For you gave me love
Tenderly.
