For You

I saw you approach the gate to my life
   Drawn open - it was for you
You entered and made a mess of me
   How could you be so cruel?

As you depart, leaving me full of regret
  I'm wary of what is to come
As another sets foot on the path
   I wonder what have I done?

This newcomer, he took me by surprise
   And led me away from this place
This being had a heart of gold
   And a smile on his face!

He was the most beautiful thing
   God had ever made
His soul was sweet and pure as ever
   His structure was even that of an angel.

I wish he knew what he meant to me
   But I doubt he ever will
He saved my life, I'm sure he did
   I know now what I feel.

It's him I want and no one else
   I'm free to choose my way
Look into my eyes and there you will see
A desire you can not weight.

For the fire you encounter burns for thee.
