Starting Life Over

Walk with me down the road so we can see tomorrow

Dry the tears I cry each day from my inner sorrow

Hold my hand down life's forever winding path

Lend me your shoulder when I've been struck by pain's wrath

Kiss me sweet and tender to ease my troubled mind

Fill my mind with new thoughts don't let me look behind

Say the loving words my ears long to hear spoken

Mend my wounds and save this heart that has been broken

Shine your loving light into my darkened soul

Share with me the part of you I need to make me whole

Open my eyes to a new life I've longed for 'til this day

Give me trust and honesty and promise me you'll stay

Now you've touched my heart, my soul and opened up my mind

Now I can start life over and leave my past behind
