the wonder i feel

sometimes I let myself sleep through it
sometimes there come nights like this
when I let the feelings rise through me
and I let myself reminisce

and I wish you could know the wonder I feel
the peace of knowing love so true
for no matter what or where we’ve been
I’m still in love with you

I’ve learned through the years that a heart can love many
that true love does not diminish when it is not shared
and when the pain of separation would come around
all I need to do is remember how much we cared

and as the years passed I accepted your choices
to leave me out of your life and family
but that does not change the inner voices
and you will always sing inside of me

and I wish you could know the wonder I feel
the peace of knowing love so true
for no matter what or where we’ve been
I’m still in love with you

and rare is the one who can embrace a heart as true as mine
for she has to love you and everyone I ever loved
and there have been a few others who could reach the divine
embrace of innocent passion that every heart dreams of

and as he years passed I accepted the reasons
people leave me out of their lives and families
for I will not allow pretend or limitations
in my heart there will be no conformity

and I wish you could know the wonder I feel
the peace of knowing love so true
for no matter what or where we’ve been
I’m still in love with you

anyone I’ve ever loved is welcome back
for an end to love is one thing I lack
I’m not interested in normal or propriety
true love is the only reason for living for me

and I wish you all could know the wonder I feel
the peace of knowing love so true
for no matter what or where we’ve been
I’m still in love with you
I’ll always be in love with you
