Love Lights the Way


I'm posting this for all the victims of violence and other tragedies, such as earthquakes,  wildfires, hurricanes, around the world, and their loved ones who grieve for them.

I started writing it a few days after 9/11.
It was recorded  by David Leonard

Hold me close, let me know that you love me,
in this world full of darkness, I need to know you are near.
We don't know where we'll be tomorrow;
let us gather good memories while we are here.

(chorus)
Thru the years you've been right by my side,
my dearest friend, I always can depend -
that when I despair, 'cause hate seems everywhere
our love lights the way to a brighter day.

Hold me close, let us help one another
remember the gladness that we once had.
Hold me close, let us be for each other
a haven of comfort in a world going mad.

(chorus)

Hold me close, let me know that you love me,
I need to know you are near.

Hold me close.
Hold me close.
Hold me close.
