Love Is a Gift I Give to You

The night sky twinkles above
The stars mirror the light in your eyes
They fill with the look of love
And with the bond that ties

The eyes are the window to the soul
Open to expose the heart's real need
What is the payment of the toll?
A spark that is planted like a seed

This spark is a fire burning within
A desire to expand the glow
To some, it's simply a sin
To others, the heart will know

The eyes show the love you feel
The heart is open wide
My soul has to close the deal
Then you walk with me by my side

Love is a gift I give to you
My heart for you to hold
If you feel the love I feel too
Our hearts will warm and block out the cold
