|
The world has taken me from you |
|
Lured me away by the beauty of a dream |
|
But I am standing here now |
|
To search no more |
|
Because you first loved me |
|
Your memory dimmed in the distance |
|
But there was always the voice you taught to sing |
|
Calling me home to my heart still belongs |
|
To where you first loved me |
|
Angels have stood |
|
Tirelessly by my side |
|
But now they're yours |
|
And I can feel them fly |
|
In the stillness of my silent prayer |
|
I will place you in their care tonight |
|
Tonight |
|
And I will scatter the roses |
|
Unto the snow where forever you will sleep |
|
And you will know why I brought them here to you |
|
Because you first loved |
|
Because you first loved me |
|
And I am standing here now |
|
In grateful tears |
|
Because you loved me |
|
First loved me |
