If I embrace
All that you present
Will my heart be changed?
Will my flesh relent?
If I lay my weary hand
Softly on your smooth-skinned brow,
Can I lay my burden down?
Can you tell me how?
If I touch you through your eyes
If I love you with my soul
Will you lead me to the skies?
Will you free me from this hole?
Ah, the hopes we all have that some special someone will save us from ourselves. We wish it could be another human being, a lover, a mate, don’t we?
That we often do.
