back to life

the soft hands of happiness
reach to me through the night
and turn my skin to silk...
A perfect smile is born
and my face rejoices
through the pale light
that gleams from scented candles.
Love was always hard
but now comes easy...
I lose myself in your eyes
and all around me
there's a sound
that fills my heart
where there once was a whole
the size of the world...
I feel week in the knees
as that sound fills me...
I close my eyes
to breathe in your smell
as I touch your skin...
The way you make me feel
is all new to me...
Your voice is that sound
and you whisper to me
as I fall asleep
in your warm embrace
that brought me back to grace
and back to life...
