I Never Knew It Would Be You

By: Tonese Rene Reed

He was the man that came from my past
He was the only one I could trust
I said he couldn't make me fly
He said I couldn't make him love

We both were wrong for quite some time
I moved away and he stayed on my mind
I came back and there he was
With open arms and all his love

He never once broke my heart
He never once called me outside my name
He used to make love to my body and mind
He was the one who kept me sane

Last night he took me to our special place
Memories came rushing back again
I melted deep into his arms
And threw all caution to the wind

I think that we both were meant to be
I've never felt so secure before
I never felt a joy like this
Finally I'm in peaceful bliss

When I moved away he still was there
He wrote me love letters to say he cared
He called me to make sure I was fine
He said I constantly stayed on his mind

He's been my strength when I was weak
He's been the one to pray with me
He's everything I could hope for
He's my friend and so much more

It's a friendship that bloomed into love
It's a love that is rare and pure
I never knew I could fly this high
I never knew it would be him this time
