Love Song of Songs

I remember it so clearly, the day I met you

I was sitting in my dorm room, a freshman brand new

I was trying not to cry from all the pressure and stress

When you knocked on my door and saw I was a mess.

You didn’t turn and shut the door to leave me alone,

But you questioned what was wrong, and made me feel at home.

And from that day on I knew you were the one

The love of my life, my heart’s sole completion.


And

You had ravished my heart with one glance of your eyes

And although I had just met you, it came as no surprise

That my whole life had meant nothing until you

My heart of hearts, you’ve made my life brand new.


I remember it so clearly just simply hanging out

And in sharing my life with you, you erased all my doubt.

It didn’t matter where I was going, or what I would do

Because no matter what came in life, I knew I’d have you.

And from that day on you never left my side

The love of my life, in whom I do confide.


Because

You had ravished my heart with one glance of your eyes

And although I had just met you, it came as no surprise

That my whole life had meant nothing until you

My heart of hearts, you’ve made my life brand new.


With one glance of your eyes you ravished my heart,

And now from you my love, my God, I’ll never be apart.

For you saved me the day we met and each day yet to come

And still you give your heart to me, where all good things come from.


Yes

You had ravished my heart with one glance of your eyes

And although I had just met you, it came as no surprise

That my whole life had meant nothing until you

My heart of hearts, my God, my all, the holy one and true.
