Redemption

Oh, for the day that love found me.


Oh, for the day that love found me
Cupid fired and raised a wave
It dressed me in insanity
Took away, more than it gave

Reason went, he could not stand
The wild thoughts of my mind
No longer was he in command
No reason could he find

Soon after, Sight, he marched afar
His eyes could see no more
Beyond the beauty that you are
The love that I adore

Then Hearing too no longer fought
The shop, he shut, he closed
Of telling me what others thought
And, what they supposed

Emotion was more lenient
For he had changed his tack
With urges disobedient
He placed me back on track

And teacher Time did fair me well
To spend my life with you
He kept me under cupid’s spell
And showed me what is true

So, for the day that love found me
All that I can say
Along with this insanity
Gave more than took away.
