How

How would my words begin...

...when all the words I wanted to say..
Are too much to be said for a day...

If I asked the sun, to bring you light,
and warmth when it's cold,

If I asked the stars to cover your dreams,
the moon to set things right..

If I catch the morning dewdrops,
and keep them all,

--that I may catch the words...just right--


It took a lifetime,
...staring from this distance,
And it takes another,
...to utter the words

Longing for that moment,
..when every feeling inside
would come to live, like a newborn


How else would my words begin...

..it takes a lifetime, to tell it so
when the only words I wanted to say...

Are all the words I needed you to know...
