and loves me anyway. 

* 

Through the eyes of your lover 

you mean so much more. 

From the moment I saw you, 

you made my heart soar. 

You gave my life meaning 

and made everything new. 

I want to spend eternity 

wrapped up in you. 

~ 

Through the eyes of Christ 

I am a sinner who deserves a second chance. 

He sees the person I'm supposed to be. 

And the one I run from. 

* 

I fall on my face 

to thank God above 

for giving me you, 

and this amazing love. 

I can't stop smiling. 

My joy can't be disguised. 

When you look at me 

through those beautiful eyes.
