Love for you...

for all that you have given to me

I can't return, but love for you

bound up the wounds I didn't see

and gave me hopes and passions new

I can't return, but love for you

whose unmoved faith did my heart move!?

and gave me hopes and passions new

and loved me until I turned to love

whose unmoved faith did my heart move!?

the mother of my heart, not just blood

who loved me till I turned to love

and became the soul I would

the mother of my heart, not just blood

bound up the wounds I didn't see

and became the soul I would

for all that you've given to me....

(this is my latest song)

You made me...ME!!

before I was myself, you made me Me.

with love and patience, discipline and tears.

then, bit by bit, stepped back to set me free,

allowing me to sail upon my sea,

though well within the headlands of your fears.

before I was myself, you made me, Me!!

with dreams enough of what I was to be

and hopes that would be sculpted by the years

then, bit by bit, stepped back to set me free

relinquishing your powers gradually

to let me shape myself among my peers

before I was myself, you made me, Me.

and being cold and wise, you gracefully

as dancers, when the last sweat condenses,

bit by bit stepped back to set me free,

for love inspires learning naturally

the mind ascends to what the heart reveres

and, so it was, through love you made me, Me..

by slowly stepping back to set me free!!

THANKS MA!!
