Yes You
By Glenn Johnson

Traveled speed of love’s light
Crossing thousand galaxies to say:
Love, yes love, universal dream
And you, yes you, its graceful vision.

I feel the sky breathe
Mother Earth smile and say:
Love, yes love, mystery miraculous
And you, yes you, beauty sublime.

Now, I know you love me
Now, I hear my heart say:
Love, yes love, precious gift
And you, yes you, love’s hearth.

We have shared all we feel
Hearts open, tender, say:
Love, yes love’s glorious romance
And we, yes we, love’s joyous home.

Tonight, bliss, our hearts swell
Tonight, it surrounds our bed and says:
Love, yes love, answered prayer
And we, yes we, grateful embrace.
