"Our Deepest Fear is not that we are inadequate, our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure"


(Verse)

it was love
that taught my heart to fear
the fear I would not have you here
to give to me,
what I hadn't known
a promise that I would never be alone

(bridge)


(chorus)

I hear your voice
(I hear our voice)
Speaking to me
(Speaking to we)
The love within
(The love we share)
Is of purity
(Is of purity)
even if the choice
should return to me
like an ocean
your love will sing to me
and break my chains
With its melody

(soft piano)


(Verse)

the angels
have left the snow
they sing to the present
Many songs
they had known
from long ago:

as long as we endure
your laughter
your spoken words
your soulful cries
shall remain impure

(bridge)


(Chorus)

I hear your voice
(I hear our voice)
Speaking to me
(Speaking to we)
The love within
(The love we share)
Is of purity
(Is of purity)
even if the choice
should return to me
like an ocean
your love will sing to me
and break my chains
With its melody

(soft piano)


(Verse)

it was love
that taught my heart to fear
the fear I would not have you here
to give to me,
what I hadn't known
your promise, I would never be alone
you said:

If your days should turn into night
darkness your soul should put at ease
Know my touch, a ray of light
Will bring you up from your knees

(soft piano)

I am a new born sky
stars shine on me
with faith brightly
even if despair
should imprison me
I know that your love
Will set me free


The author's comments:
This song was lent inspiration from two sources, one was that anytime I think of the past I miss the fun times but also regress on the bad times too much. The other is that my girlfriend has finally given me the love I hadn't really received from my childhood but I am getting that from her and she brings me out of the past, and into the present, the future is bright. I also know that if I should dip back into the past and become swallowed by despair, I know the she will always forever be there. I love you ashley. =)
