He Said (This Time)

He said

"Don't run away from love
Don't be afraid
What I want to give
Are the stuff which dreams are made

You always run
And try to hide
But I need you here
Right by my side

You think I will hurt you
That I'll break your heart
You need to have faith
That would be smart

You can't ever shake me
Because your love for me is from God
That other thing you do is not
And frankly, to me it seems odd

I know what you are thinking
I've done some messed up stuff myself
But now I know so much better
And I want you to put the bad stuff on the shelf'

I know you get so sad
When confronted with things and people of my past
They've got nothing on you. It's over
What you and I have will last

Girl, don't turn your eyes from me
When I'm talking to you
There's nothing for you to fear
Just do as I say to do

Not because I am better
But because we two are one
You're my responsibility
That job will never be done

Your job is to honor and love me
And help me in anyway you can
For me that's the biggest blessing
It's my honor to be your man

It's OK to sit in silence
It's the best way for us to hear
Let's learn and grow together
For I'm sure our time is near."
