She ignited the spark in my soul

She was the sun and moon and stars 
She was everything I adored 
And yet I felt completely too small 
Unable to give her the love and life she deserved 

It never dawned on me, not once
That she would embrace me as I am 
She would give me love and light with grace 
She would believe in the possibilities of us

Instead of faith, I took the road of fear
I landed up in the darkest abyss 
Unable to claw my way out
Unable to see light anywhere 

But she, oh she, yes she 
She came down into hell for me 
She ignited the spark in my soul
She ignited the warmth in my heart

She lit up that dark space with her brilliance
She shone her light fiercely and bravely 
That love and light went on and on
And turned hell into heaven for all

She was the sun and moon and stars 
She became everything to me, and more
Unlocking the gates to my prison 
Setting my heart and soul free to soar

As one we embraced our future 
As one, we conquered every fear
Our love healed every heartache
Our love overcame sorrows and tears

For she, oh she, yes she 
She came down into hell for me 
She ignited the spark in my soul
She ignited the warmth in my heart

She lit up that dark space with her brilliance
She shone her light fiercely and bravely 
That love and light went on and on
And turned hell into heaven for all
