Love At Last
My heart was pure as that of a newborn
Of love I knew nothing like a greenhorn
But fate was right to bring you my way
With you begins the dawn of a new day
I loved before but paid the cost
My love was taken in exchange for dust
And when I thought true love was lost
You drew the line between love and lust
When morning comes I think of you
While the sun looks down into my room
My love for you is none but true
My heart races to see you soon
Your lovely hands I’m ready to hold
If you promise to stay in hot and cold
You’re everything that I live for
For you alone my love is pure
When filled with grief of memories past
I think of you and they fade out fast
This new found love I pray would last
For when with you my burden is cast…
