I was scared to death that you were going to leave me
I let the fear become the darkness that consumed me
Left God behind and hurt you thinking you weren't trying
My own sword pierced my heart and now I lay here dying
I just cant bear the thought of being without you
It just is not an option I'm willing to go through
Embrace our union; the commitment we gave
We swore before God we'd be together til the grave
Find forgiveness and we both can start anew
It is the very thing that God wants us to do
A sacred vow society has tossed aside
A sin ignored! Its more convenient not to try
I know my faults now and I'm changing for the good
Ill build myself back up, just like I said I would
just understand; believe the man that you once knew
because there was a time I meant something to you
you wanted closeness and I thought that I was giving
I didn't get it at the time because I was grieving
I never meant to leave your side you should believe me
I didn't hear you when you cried and tried to tell me
I share your pain now can we just put it behind us?
Lets throw our baggage out and keep our life long promise
Its like a dagger when you say lets just be friends
You are my wife and I just want a second chance
I want to take you to a place we haven't been,
to sail with you on the sea of love again
together joined like drops of water from the rain
two heartbeats adding to the whisper of the wind.
if we can count a million stars up in the sky
those are the kisses I will give you as we share this life
Before God and you I promised I would never leave you
I would not lie or cheat, betray you or deceive you
This is a promise that I cherish and believe
Another loss and I wont have the will to breathe
I'm not the men that didn't care enough to love you
cant you see it in my eyes that I adore you?
you are my living soul; my angel, you're the one
so much to share with you I just wont leave undone
we share the gift of children that need us to be strong
to watch them grow, mature and head out on their own
they will remember if we walk our separate ways
a tragic memory inside their heads to stay
we owe it to them to not think so selfishly
it doesn't justify the hurt to them we bring
I want you more now than I ever have before
If I cant feel your love my soul can live no more
i love you
