Your Effect
Darkness crippled me to the ground
Sharp blades forced cries
Everyday was a new torture
I don't know how much more to take
Every restless night was spent in tears
Minutes would pass before hours took flight
I was veering off the path to something good
And now every opportunity was hidden
But here you swept me off my feet
Cradling me with reassuring kisses
Drowning me in admiration and love
And hand in hand you stand tall with me
The fog cleared up, but mystery still lurked
Sending confusion to engulf me
Words were now muffled, but I was still here
On this remote deserted island
A labyrinth lays before me, ensnaring me
Fear rose, a new need for you rose
I cried out, but you wouldn't answer
Darkness overcame me, jolting me up
But here you swept me off my feet
Cradling me with reassuring kisses
Drowning me in admiration and love
And hand in hand you stand tall with me
Sunlight shines through the thick clouds
At last joy had broke through the storm
Ever since you were summoned
Every day became clearer and clearer
You’re the one who shields me from danger
A chivalrous warrior protecting his treasure
The daunting puzzles gone, my world rid of evil
You’re the one I see in my future
And you sweep me off my feet
Cradling me in assuring kisses
Drowning me in admiration and love
And hands in hands, we stand tall
