==============================================

Is this for real?
Is this the truth?
Do you know how I feel?
Do you know what I mean?

It started on the hot summer day
I was broken hearted
Lonely and in pain
I was starting to lose hope
I wish I could smile
I wish I could feel warm

I was all right
But deep inside
I was praying so hard
"Lord, give me someone
Who can love me
For more than who I really am
Give me the man
Who will accept me
Who will keep me and
My fragile, lonely heart."

One day
I thought I was dreaming
You were there
Like a knight in shining armour
Like the glow of the moon in the night
Sparkling water under the blanket
Of stars slowly falling in my arms

You saw my heart
You healed and filled
You decided to keep
You decided to care and cherish
A promise of warmth
A promise of love and hope
A promise of everlasting bond

I am still so fragile
But you are there to catch me
I am still so weak
You are making me strong
We dream together
We build our future for forever

If this is just a dream
I would never want to wake up
This fairy tale is so good to be true
A love to cherish never to fade
Keep me in your arms
Hold me tight
Make me feel warm with your love
Forever together never to break

Let our story be a new dimension
Of how love can bond two people
Though seas and wide lands part us
We bridge the distance that
We have between us
Through never ending faithfulness
And trust to each other
May our love grow much stronger.
