Love Reunited

Hey there friend!
Long time no see
I'm still around
Whenever you need me.
I know it's been a while
Since we last talked
And even longer
Since we last walked
Together down the hard road
Even when we weren't getting along
Just a matter of miscommunication
Being on different pages of the song.
Here we are once again
Standing at the fork in the road
Allow me to help you this time
And share the burden of your load.
We have to pull together
Not push apart
We can take this road one step
At a time and mend our broken hearts.
It wasn't easy when I first saw you
I just wanted to turn away
Then Jesus intervened and opened my eyes
I didn't know what to say.
I did thank Him though
For sending you back to me
Even after all this time
Things will be different, you'll see.
What I'm trying to say 
Is now I know
Why it was
You had to go.
It was too painful
For you to stay
As we remained
Set and steadfast in our ways.
Neither one of us willing to give in or
Give up nor wanting to budge
Instead we acted like children 
And chose to hold a grudge.
Now that the tension
Has finally been broken
Can we put the past behind us
And let the negative remain unspoken?
We've been given a second chance
To try and set things straight
We have to live for this moment
Before it's too late.
So what do you say?
Let's try this again
And stick with it
Until the very end.
