Love Through Fire and Ice

Oh, how good it feels to have you hold me
after all these years!
How long we've known each other both in laughter and in tears.

I've known you at your ugliest and at your very best
but soon I learned to bury the bad
and embrace the lovely rest.

At first I didn't like you when you blew into my town
my best friend fell for you and I felt sure you'd cut him down.
But I saw what you did for him that no one else could do
You gave his life such meaning when he fell in love with you.

Together you felt the fires of hell. You fought back to the fold
but something died along the way and soon your love turned cold
It grieved when you left him. You were both my loving friends
But from the ruins came two new lives, for you that can never end

Such time has passed. Now I've returned
to the place where first we met
as beautiful as ever now
with a heart I'll not forget
Time has set the silver on our heads, but forged us hearts anew
new life is running through my veins, now that I know I love you
a fiery blood flows from my heart as I tell you I love you.
