I want to

We were apart for 17 years
And in that time I shed many tears
Tears for so many reasons
But mostly cause you were leaving
Out of my life and I could no more
Care, feel, love, and adore

You were my heart and soul
At the time I guess we had different goals
Now you have come back into my world
And I feel as though I am on a tilt a whirl

My love for you came rushing back
But you have a wall up that I am trying to crack
You deserve to feel the love and passion
That I want to give you with so much compassion

I want to love and adore you
Protect you from being so blue
I want to give you all I can
And be your biggest fan

I want to heal you when you are sick
I want to pick you up when you are down
I want to give you my all
And all I want in return is your love

The love I know you have deep inside
I know your heart is weakened and bruised
But let me show you that not all just abuse
But for you I would lay down and die

If it meant hearing those words once again
I would know my fight has been worth it then
For it is you I love, forever and always
