My Cover 5-24-04
I pulled the covers up
above my head
to hide everything
from hope to dread.
I tried to protect myself
from everything around
and closed my heart
from life and sound.
Yet, my eyes were revield
and saw just you
proving to me that there
are things beautiful and true.
You, baby, opened the pathway
into my dark, dreary heart
and allowed me to
see love in all its majesty and art.
You helped to pull the
covers from my face
but didn't take them
all away, just in case.
I saw how truely good
love and beauty was
from the wide rivers
to every little bee's buzz.
Then, you pulled them
all away from me
and pulled me up
from my bed to let me see.
I know now that what
you did was for love;
it opened me up and
I flew away like a dove.
I thank you for all
that you can do;
now, everything i do
is always going to be for you.
