The first time that I fell in love
I gave my heart and soul
To please my man in every way I could
I opened up my heart to him and let him come inside
Putting everything I were within his grasp
My feelings and emotions melted down in his desires
Forming stepping stones for him along his way
And all I ever wanted was his love back in return
Constantly concerned about who he was and what he did
I know I tried a hundred times to merge with what he was
Crying every time I failed to find his heart
And admitting to myself that my search had failed
Took all the strength that I had left within
I was frightened like a kitten sitting high up in a tree
Wondering how I ever got out on this limb
But I found the strength and courage
To make my way back down
And I'm feeling pretty safe but kind of lost
For everything that I have done within my life thus far
Has only brought me suffering and pain
But I made my way up to the top
And I made my way back down
And my strength and courage
Were all the help I had
So now I know within myself
That if love should ever call
The woman in me can make that climb again
But this time it will be a safe journey
Successfully in enduring a successful
Spiritual foundation to make the climb again
A prosperous and joyful journey
