Swept Away One Night

You showed me a new world
One where I felt I belonged
No one judging me, assuming the worst
About the life I lead that they knew nothing about.
You taught me lessons I should have
already known
I needed a reminder that I was worthy
of the love you so freely gave to me
Your wisdom belies your youth
Lessons you learned under duress
I never experienced the things you had
seen at such a young age.
Thank you for caring, thank you for loving me.
Thank you for the man you are
You don't have to hide behind your tough looks
Because I've seen the gentle soul inside.
This is the man with whom
I fell completely, utterly, unalterably in love.
Look in the mirror, cher ami
It is you...
