Salvation

Salvation
 
I need salvation for this heart of mine
But I feel that I’m running out of time
 
The sunlight always reveals the truth
Different from when I was in my youth
 
The pouring rain streams down my face
I think we need a prayer in this place
 
Love please don’t do me wrong
My broken heart sings a sad song
 
I pray to the Lord teach me to fly
I swear that my heart will always try
 
Lord let me finally feel the power of love
Let angels gently guide me from above
 
Save me drowning in the hopeless sea
Give me love and then set me free
 
Cross the burning sands of time
Let all that I desire now be mine
 
Take all the rain from stormy skies
Don’t allow your heart to say goodbye
 
Say that in spirit you will never have to part
Crossing all boundaries’ of my aching heart
 
Save me from a sea of broken hearts
Why do me and love seem worlds apart
 
Bring me love across the desert sands
Let love take me by the lonesome hand
 
Take this golden key and unlock my heart
Allowing all good intentions to finally start
 
Bring love to me like a blossoming rose
Running to my heart as the river flows
