You thought you were all alone
A young woman without a friend
But the heavenly father has shown
You will not be alone, and a person was sent
He was lonely too
Not a penny to lose
No longer wealth he once knew
Not a franc, not a sous
Then your paths crossed
Though strange it may seem
You were no longer lost
Guided by the stream
Your hands found his hands
Your lips found his lips
Your heart made a dance
As he carefully put his hands on your hips
At first it felt funny
But then you knew
The world became sunny
And along birds you flew
They sent you up to the sky
Made you feel
Everything seemed to fly
And you'd think: is this for real?
Darkness was no longer
Only light and hope
And every day you grew stronger
With everything you could cope
Then he had to fight
You tried to be brave
In your prayers you shed your light
To keep him safe
God showed mercy for his soul
One night he returned
Disgusted by all the foul
Thankful for the life he had earned
To be with his love
To have and to hold
His own little dove
Let truth be told
Finally you found your soul mate
To spend the rest of your life
It must have been fate
That you became his wife
Love and joy will shelter you
Caress and cherish it when you can
And your children will feel it too
And bring it in their life then.
