Take It All The Way

Not long ago a heart was unsure
Haunted from the past it had to endure
It trembled and shook but dared not to beat
At the first sign of love it beat its retreat

But one day this heart felt a tiny pull
As if something wished it not to hide in full
And try as it might it could not break away
It seems this something was there to stay

It wanted so badly to take a quick look
To see what had grasped it in sweet gentle hooks
Gathering all of its strength it turned around
Only to find by true love it had been bound

For a moment all the pain and confusion was gone
It knew that with love it did belong
Bidding goodbye to the refuge in which it stayed
It turned to embrace true love and take it all the way
