You drew a picture for me in the sand
I wrote your name on the palm of my hand
You sent a wish out on the wind
I opened up and let you in
I gave you warmth I made the fire
You brought me love all I desired
I gave you peace I gave you calm
You gave me will you made me strong
The sun is shining on a new horizon
The wind has taken all our cares away
With world behind us and the light inside us
We can see our way to better days
You never let me get caught in the storm
I always kept you from all harm
You never let my mind get clouded
I tried to keep your heart from doubting
I held you up when you started to fall
You stayed beside me right through it all
I wouldn’t let them pull you down
You kept me standing on solid ground
The sun is shining on a new horizon
The wind has taken all our cares away
With world behind us and the light inside us
We can see our way to better days
I came for you when you were stranded
You gave me water from your hand and
I was your shelter from the storm
You were the only one who kept me warm
The sun is shining on a new horizon
The wind has taken all our cares away
With world behind us and the light inside us
We can see our way to better days
