Someday someone will walk into your life and make you realize why it never worked out with anyone else. <br /> ---Unknown


Darkness consumes you day after day
Emptiness fills you, but don’t be afraid.
I am here and I will not leave you
Reach for my hand; it’s held out for you.

Your past is your present; it acts as your chain
Happiness I know you are trying to gain
I am here to help you
Take my hand; it’s held out for you.

Your life used to be full of rain
Full of sorrow and full of pain
But I will take away your blues
Please take my hand; it’s held out for you

We were accustom to screaming and yelling
In history you can stop dwelling
Because our past I am trying to undo
Will you take my hand? It’s held out for you.

You know that I am always here
To calm your fears and dry your tears
I am always here for your rescue
Grasp for my hand; it’s held out for you

I know that sometimes you don’t believe me
But please you have to see
That I’m not going to leave you
My hand’s right here; it’s held out for you.

I love you
And I will keep reassuring you
Here is something I will always do
Extend my hand, and hold it out for you.

Your days are now filled with sunshine
Don’t worry this happiness will not decline
I know this joy is new
Just take my hand; it’s held out for you

You are getting better every day
And maybe realizing what I have to say
Could this be true?
Are you taking my hand, that is held out for you?

I will wait for the day
When you come to me and say
I know that you have had hard times too
So take my hand; it’s held out for you.
