Judith Owen - 1709 Lyrics

I am here
I am now
So don't let the ghost of her keep you in the past
I am clear
I know now
That the love like ours from heaven was born to last
There is fear
There is doubt
Impetuous love takes a little more time
I love you now like I did then
When you put my heart to rest in a
New York hotel room
1709

I used to think that I found the perfect lover
Give me a day and he'd change, I'd soon discover,
There's something about you I've found
I can feel it in my heart, want to sing it out loud
So won't you give me some time please
I'm only an ocean away

I am lost
I am found
In the sweetness of your touch and your warm embrace
I am filled
With your sounds
With the meaning in your eyes
And the truth in your face
There is fear
There is doubt
Impetuous love takes a little more time
I know you now like I loved you then
When you put my heart to rest in a
New York hotel room
1709

I'm only an ocean away
in 1709
