"Our Heaven Above"
by: Tina R. Lizama 
      I never thought I'd find the one,  
      then again I never met you Until now.   
      And I thank the Lord each day and each night too 
      For leading my heart to yours and yours to mine. 

      Traveling across the distance and throughout all of time 
      To bring us closer together, as lovers and as friends 
      As separate hearts once before, as a single heart in the end 

      You touched my life and made me whole 
      Deep within and throughout my lonely soul 
      Showing me loneliness never more 
      By turning the key to unlock my heart's door 

      You walked into my life and into my heart 
      Making me feel we're not worlds apart 
      And etching a symbol of your love 
      Showing me Our Heaven Above 

      I dreamt with you and you dreamt with me 
      Together we became the best we could be 
      You brightened my days and filled my nights 
      You forgave my wrongs and commended my rights 

      And when I stumbled you took my hand 
      With your strength, you helped me stand 
      You taught me to strive, you taught me to live 
      But most importantly, I learned how to give 

      Of my love, of my life, and of myself because of you 
      I learned how to feel and say what is true 
      So I say to you now, my true love 
      Thank you for showing me Our Heaven Above!
