All Through These Endless Nights

All through these endless nights

I sit and remember the
oh so familiar sights.

The beauty I see and feel in your look;

It’s so strange how you can
read my heart like an open book.

God seems to just rest upon your shoulder;

it makes me feel welcome at church,
I can walk in so much bolder.

I guess he works in mysterious ways.

It doesn’t matter how, what he’s given
me through you, I’ll keep till the end of my days.

Through nights like these I lie awake;

I wonder how something so beautiful is
created; I wonder how long it would take.

Such things are greater than time and space;

It’s amazing how it works and how all is
forgotten once I see the love on your face.

Each night I think of you, it’s always the same;

lightning (you) strikes through my mind
and the wind sweetly blows your name.

Through an endless night like this

I lay awake thinking of you,
it’s always your heart that I miss.....
