Your Love

Your Love

I watch the rain come down
Remembering the times with you
When I thought that I might drown
In your love

When I see a flash of lightning
I catch a glimpse of your dear face
And I see your brown eyes smiling
Showing me your love

When the thunder rolls I hear
Your deep strong voice
Whisper softly in my ear
Telling of your love

As I listen to the rain
I remember you holding me close
And saying everything would be okay
I was safe in your love

But then they took you away from me
They stole away your life
And left me feeling sad and lonely
Lonely for your love

To them you meant not a thing
They lost nothing in your death
But when you stopped your breathing
I lost your love

Now my tears pour like the rain
Falling down my face
But they cannot wash away
The memories of your love

You were my safety in the storm
You were my shelter
You kept me warm
With your love

Now the storm threatens me
The thunder ’round me rolls
The lightning crashes over me
And I can’t feel your love

I pray the storm will take me
Take my breath and life
For I cannot go on living
Life without your love
