Just beneath the surface
Of a loving and confident smile
Lies a sleeping dragon
The fear of losing you, yet again

Only love will displace the rising fear
Only a miraculous touch of God
Will change the inevitability of loss
Will restore the hope of romance’s rebirth

Just beneath the surface
Of a man praying with fervor
For the destined return to the truth
He screams at what will likely follow

Only love will displace the rising fear
Love sought and accepted by two children
I pray that God will move you, my dear
To pray that forgiveness will heal our hearts
