Yours to Keep

The fire has burned down now
And the candle’s glow is gone
The night has wrapped velvet soft around us tight
And we’ve heard love whispered in the last song.

The time has come to give in to each word
And reach for love, that’s what my heart is for
To hold you, touch you, you’ll never feel the same
Come to me quickly now this is much more than some game.
The time has come to deliver the tender I spoke in every word
So love me back, that’s what this heart is for, that’s what this heart is for.

Now there’s a glow in the darkness
Where it lights your trust, your hope, your soul
And could it be love that’s shining true
As the soft light spreads, shining in glory, lighting my countenance too

The time has come to answer to each and every word
Calling my name, that’s what this heart is for
To hold you, touch you, you’ll never feel alone again
Come to me quickly now this can never be called simply sin.
The time has come to deliver the love I feel so very deep
So love me back, my heart is yours to keep, my heart is yours to keep.
My heart is yours to keep.
