No words of haste, cloaking the doubting heart
I can see there will be no right or wrong
For one can finally strengthen the other
Although the sting of bitterness may linger from yesterday
Take comfort, for tomorrow allows one to make amends for the past
As the future turns uncertain pages
The joy we've spread will last the ages
And though this world may cease to be
A memory is captured in this melody
Of a time two souls will rarely find
Our friendship, our trust, and peace of mind ...
What is this paradox that we were scared to be as one
And yet so scared to feel the chill only the lonely know?
But I have given to you, and you have given to me
The respect that is synonymous with security
Assured that we haven't invested in love for love's sake
By your touch, my voice, your gaze, our choice
As the future turns uncertain pages
The joy we've spread will last the ages
And though this world may cease to be
A memory is captured in this melody
Of a time two souls will rarely find
Our friendship, our trust, and peace of mind ...
