To Have And To Hold
APRIL RAPIER, BOB OLDREIVE & JOE LINDLEY
God has taken his time showing his hand
But you know, Im not complaining
Because He showed me the way to have and to hold
And love without explaining
I have wandered the world searching for something
That I just couldnt see
When I look in your eyes, its so easy to tell
Im where Im meant to be
chorus
When I talk to you I feel so alive
I want to be with you til day becomes night
And I run to you when life seems so cold
You teach me to have and to hold
When pride leads the way, well, it can empty a heart
Blind to what really matters
You bring out my best and you make me believe
Love is here ever after
And when I stopped lookingthere you were
As though youd been waiting for me
The mistakes and the tears just disappeared
A leap of faith and I can finally see
chorus
bridge Who are we in the end,
but who we love and where we stand?
So Ill stay by your side as we grow up together
And smile as the world passes by
Every moment we share will be something special
Cause youve still got that gleam in your eye
I know that you love menow, what could be better?
Time has proven youre worth the wait
And Gods gift to me is our life together
No more running from fate
