Take My Hand

You walked into my life like a hurricane

I didn't know if falling for you was okay

But I did it anyway, and I never looked back

Because I'm too far in to ever turn away from you

The lights went dim when I first saw you

You were walking, and the crowd faded away

The spotlight hit your face as if you had fallen

But after what we've done, Heaven would never take you back

I could never forget the way you looked at me

Your eyes begged to me to never leave your side

And I knew from that moment on I could never stay gone

No matter how much I ever wanted to, I promised you

Now take my hand because it won't be easy

And take my hand, it's dangerous to be lonely

We only have one chance to find happiness

And I'm not done looking for mine in your eyes

So let's go somewhere old

I want you to tell me those distant memories

Tell me how the past molded your heart

And let me listen to the songs that used to cross your old radio

I want the name of your hometown on my lips

Tell me the stories behind your school halls, school walls

How did you ever get that mysterious burn on your wrist

And how did such a sweet soul ever end up in this busy city life

Well written. If I may offer a bit of criticism, I would say that to end your sentences and with the appropriate punctuation marks to better convey your message. However I thoroughly enjoyed this! Keep up the good work!
