You reached out, took my hand,
   and lead me away from here.
I searched your face for a hint
   as if looking in a mirror.

But i found no clues in your eyes
   nor in the look you gave.
It confused me why you should care
   and it washed over me like a wave.

That's when you stopped, turned around,
   and pulled me to your heart.
I could feel you breathing,
   I wondered what was about to start.

It seemed like an eternity
   as you held me tight.
I closed my eyes, dared not move,
   scared you'd vanish into the night.

I feared this was all a dream
   that seemd to go to be true.
I feared that I would awake
   and find nothing of you.

Yet there I stayed in your arms
   your love enshrouding me.
And only there in your embrace
   could I truly be set free.
