~Where Love Abounds~

​​

I thought I knew what love was

Love was something that you did

I looked past all the flaws

My true thoughts were always hid

 

I moved through the motions

What was expected from a wife

But I always had the notion

That I was meant for a different life

 

Who I was wasn't real

I questioned the choices that I made

Leaving was never part of the deal

So every night I prayed

 

Where is the love that I need

The one who knows my heart

To God above I plead

I need a brand new start

 

You are somewhere out there

Show me true love to be found

And I will be there, I swear

Where love abounds

 

Sometimes an ending is what you need

A heart must be broken

Before god can plant the seed

Sad words must be spoken

 

Letting go of the past

Sets everyone free

To begin a new life

I am starting with me

 

When you find the other half of you

There's no way to deny

True love can renew

Even through the goodbye

 

Where is the love that I need

The one who knows my heart

To God above I plead

I need a brand new start

 

You are somewhere out there

Show me true love to be found

And I will be there, I swear

Where love abounds

 

Our hearts are now one

Pain of the past mended

A new life has begun

Our two lives have been blended

 

We built a world around our love

Nothing can break it

Two people who give it all

We know we can make it

 

I have found the love that I need

The one who knows my heart

God above planted the seed

We knew just where to start

We will always be here

A forever love we've found

My darling, my dear

In the place where love abounds
