Lyrics

The Keeper

I kiss the hand that holds my heart, so tender it's embrace

I kiss your eyes and read the love that's written on your face

I kiss the lips that kiss me back and take me to that place

Where loneliness and discontent are gone without a trace

I will be your comfort, whenever you're in pain

I will be your shelter, from the wind and rain

I will be your beacon, to guide you home again

And you will be the keeper of my heart

And you will be the keeper of my heart

I love the one who holds my heart, she fills my world with light

She makes a bright and sunny day, from dark and fear filled night

She takes whatever's wrong for me and tries to make it right

So heartache pain and misery are gone without a fight

I will lift your spirit, whenever you are blue

I will be your constant, when no one else is true

I will always be the friend you need to get you through

And you will be the keeper of my heart

And you will be the keeper of my heart
