Once Upon A Shadow, Deep Inside A Dream

My One True Love

They ask me why.
Why do you treat me the way that you do?
Why do you cry?
Why do you smile all the time?

They ask me where.
Where do you spend all your time?
Where do you get what you wear?
Where do you go when something happens?

They ask me what.
What is in your heart right now?
What do you do when you're in a rut?
What are you thinking?

I leave their questions unanswered,
I leave them alone in their thoughts.
For I can't answer their questions in words,
only in dreams.

My dreams of You are my Sanctuary,
my dreams of You show my love.
When I dream of You I'm filled with peace,
I'm cleansed with holiness.

When You smile at me,
I don't have to ask you why.
When You're with me,
I don't have to ask You where.

When You hold my hand,
guide me through my life,
hug me when I'm sad,
laugh with me when I'm happy,
strengthen me when I grow weak,
love me when no one else does,
I don't have to ask You what You are,
I'm proud to say that I love You,
my Father,
dear God,
my one true love.
