I wish I could hold your face in my hands

And tell you how much I care;

And look deeply into your soft <color> eyes

To see my love reflected there.

I wish I could hold your hand in mine

And give you the strength to go on

Knowing that all will soon be fine,

And the pain you feel now will be gone.

I wish I could hold you close to my breast

And cradle your pain away,

Reassuring you that all today’s bitter hurts

Will have no chance to stay.

I wish I could hold your heart next to mine

For eternity’s long slow drone

And keep you safe from the world’s best worst,

Until the two of us are one.
