Loving You

Once, I was afraid I'd never find someone

To really care about.

I wanted someone perfect,

At least for me.


A special kind of talking, an honest way of listening;

No being afraid to laugh or cry;

Kindness and understanding; fun and excitement;

Someone who would lift my heart with joy.


I guess I expected a lot, but I'm a believer!

And I believed that someday;

Someone's particular magic;

Would transform my life.


So, in spite of all the waiting, all the loneliness,

All the almost-giving-up,

It's been worth it;

It's all been worthwhile.


And wishes really do come true,

Because what I always wanted

Isn't a dream -- it's you.
