It is in words that I have found you
Softly whispering my name
Sounds tenderly caressing my being
Searching every part of my wanting

It is in words that I keep you
Isolate you from sticks and stones
Protect you against all evil
Hide you from all truths

It is in words that I love you
Those of passion and childhood prayers
Those of memories and wishes
As they tie you safely to my heart

It is in words that I'll never leave you
Tender promises, white lies, crimson nights
It is in words that I'll always love
For words are all I have...
