I woke and you were there
beside me in the night.
You touched me and calmed my fear,
turned darkness into light.

I woke and saw you there
beside me as before
My heart leapt to find you near
to feel you close once more
To feel your love once more.

Your strength has made me strong
Though life tore us apart
and now when the night seems long
your love shines in my heart
Your love shines in my heart.
