As It Should Be

To Be Loved

In the quiet corner of my heart

Where few are called to enter,

I feel your influence in my life;

You see, you are the center.

In all my dreams while growing up

I imagined who you'd be.

I ached to know how it would feel

For you to rescue me.

I wondered what you looked like;

Would I recognize your face?

But when I tried to imagine

The thought would be erased.

I wondered if you'd love me.

Would I really matter to you?

Who would I have to be like?

What would I have to do?

I wondered, would you be gentle?

Would your words to me be kind?

If I could look inside your heart

What intentions would I find?

Would we ba happy together,

Be sad if we were apart?

If I went away for a little while

Would there be a hole in your heart?

Now I don't have to wonder;

You're all I imagined you'd be.

And I know with all my heart

That you will always love me.

I don't know if I deserve you

But Heaven has blessed me so.

As long as I know you love me

That's all that I need to know.
