Holding You

You opened the door and walked inside
and asked a memory of me.
It was so good and my mind quickly encircled you,
embraced you, held you.
Your words, your questions, your thoughts,
I hold you here in my mind.

You opened a window and your fresh air
blew inside my heart.
You climbed inside and it skipped a beat,
then raced so fast I couldn't breathe.
Your touch, your taste, your love,
I hold you here within my heart.

You opened a whole new world for me
and showed me pleasures I'd never known.
You draped your ribbons around me
and decorated my life.
Your eyes, your smile, your care,
I hold you here in my soul.
