I Cried

So I looked into a dream and found you there
For the laughter in your eyes I looked everywhere
Spent a long time searching and the vision almost died
When I saw your face I cried

So I took out all the prayers I'd said for you
And I lay them at your feet and they all come true
Then I felt the tingle of a turning tide
And I thanked the Lord I cried

And I cried in recognition, of the fact that my convictions
After all this time had proven to be true
All my tears were shed in secret in the chamber of a heart
That had persisted in believing I'd find you

From the gardens of my soul I picked a rose
And I listened while my heart started to compose
A song of hope unending, many oceans wide
And when you sang my song I cried

So I thought of all the times I've been alone
So much love inside my heart looking for a home
I saw the star of beauty as my friend and guide
When it led me to your door I cried
When it led me to your door I cried
