Your words of love
bring delight to
this restless soul
and I can see a future,
if I close my eyes
I can see a future
for you and I.

together we could put away the past
the pain and loss
leave it behind
with you by my side
we could build a better place
if only for the two of us.

we could build a fence
within our hearts
to keep the world at bay
as you sing your love songs to me
your voice keeping me warm
on those cold winters nights
and freeing my soul on summers days
to love and love again
a never ending circle
of love and joy for
Rita Coolidge and I
