Deeper Than Roses

Your eyes glisten in the low evening light And I become lost as I share in your gaze Your gaze – your gaze once resulted in fright But now, by your gaze I’ll forever be graced I’ll forever be graced by your gentle touch My face gently stroked by your loving hands Your gentle assurance that there’s no need to rush There’s no need to worry, no need for demands Walls that stand strong, surrounding your heart Are the results of time, abuse, and of pain But you and I, together, will break them apart Now is the birth of the new, the end of the rain You and I will face the world together You will never feel alone, or locked behind doors I’ll be beside you through the stormy weather And rejoice with you when success is yours That which we've found is deeper than emotion Deeper than roses or dancing in moonlight The love that we have won’t ever be broken Our love is guided by an unchanging light
