Trust Once More

(Album: Farewell To Paradise - 1973)

Tell me why you've been leaving so much of you behind
How can you help but seeing how it cuts me deep inside
Is it wrong for me to want to keep you to myself?
You mean so much to me I want to share you with no one else

Cause I believe in you, and I've been hurt before
I may just trust once more

Gray clouds of mixed emotion, I may just break down and cry
I feel the same pain stronger hiding tears through thirsting eyes
It's much harder now, I've loved and been betrayed
All the broken dreams we thought so sturdy made
Now I've learned that love is faith

Dear heart please hold me tightly and time will heal my wounds
Burdensome bitter memories but they'll be forgotten soon
Dark skies should have me worried but we'll kiss and make them light
We'll wake to see tomorrow fall asleep tomorrow night
It's much harder now, I've loved and been betrayed
All the broken dreams we thought so sturdy made
Now I've learned that love is faith

Warm rain gently falling very soothing while it cleans
Soft vow of strong belonging now I'm Adam and you're Eve

Cause I believe in you, and I've been hurt before
I may just trust once more
