It takes all I have to get out of bed
Knowing everyday is full of dread
I can only hope for the best
For everything puts me to the test
I had closed myself off
Given up on being soft
A glimmer of hope though, is in my sight
I think about it every night
It's been so long-I couldn't say
When last it was I felt this way
A simple voice that puts a smile on my face
Leaving me longing to be in his embrace
I wonder if it's right
That I want to be with him each night
I will take each step in stride
No longer my feelings will I hide
Only time will tell
If this will turn out well
I'll cherish every smile
Hold each soft word for just awhile
This may sound cliché or sappy
But all I want is to be happy
