29 Years

Drifting, through a life of settling
Had no one, to give my heart to lean
Till one day, she walked through the door
My life would change, I knew, forever sure

29 years I waited, 29 years of lone
Now I'll wait, 29 more, 29 years for you to come home
There's no such thing as better
No such thing as more
Trust that I'll wait forever
Praying you walk, through that door

From such young years I looked for you
The one who would win my heart
The one to whom I would pray
The one to give my life a jumpstart

The very moment my eyes hit you
The very moment I knew love existed
Everything around me paused
And the world, except for you misted

The urge to fall to my knees
And express my feelings immediately
Were overwhelming to my senses
This was, the real first day of my life, I decree

29 years I waited, 29 years of lone
Now I'll wait, 29 more, 29 years for you to come home
There's no such thing as better
No such thing as more
Trust that I'll wait forever
Praying you walk, through that door

We had our opposites
We had our similarities
Always so much, to smile about
I know God, would agree with me

Do you feel this heart beating in my chest
The pounding of a drum so loud
It never stops, you're always with me
If we had never met, I'd still find you, in the crowd

29 years I waited, 29 years of lone
Now I'll wait, 29 more, 29 years for you to come home
There's no such thing as better
No such thing as more
Trust that I'll wait forever
Praying you walk, through that door

-There never was and never will be another you Kathy, my heart cries out nonstop for your return, but I will wait, because there is no one else in this whole world, anyone else would be settling.
