Love
Silence keeps me up at night
Till light returns to rest my head
From darkness where there's no escape
The voices of the one's I love
Now lost with no more chance to touch
Just memories of a gentle hug
Or kiss that caused my heart to break
That ended with a last goodbye
Still wishing for more time
And even love is never free
The price for love is pain
But no reward is greater
For a single sacrifice
Than a gift that lasts a lifetime
Full of memories that we hold
Of those who found a place within our heart
And our love they give a home
Where it's shared between the laughter
And a shoulder for it's strength
The pain to bear is worth the cost
When love's the priceless gift
