In Love

This feeling overwhelms me
A swelling of the heart
I never truly thought I would be
This happy at the start.

You take me by the hand
And lead me by the heart
Over a sandy beach
Through the grasses we part.

With you I let go
Of intuition and sound mind
My feelings I cannot help but show
To a person who is so kind.

You kiss my lips so tender
Embrace me through the night
To you I have surrendered
Myself so hold on tight.

So strongly you hold my hand
Whisper softly in my ear
I really feel that you understand
Everything you hear.

I lose myself in you
This close I have never been
These feelings are so new
To have a lover who is my friend.
