How many storylines how many years
Of hide and seek
How many tears
Before the living truth appears
In a form you can't ignore
And when she comes for you, you realize
she's courted you through other eyes
But somehow it took this disguise
To bring you to the door
Where she's standing
With an outstretched hand, motioning
And you don't understand
But you take her lead
For you have no need but this love
She'll still your mind
But steal your rest
By lighting fires in your chest
And like an overbearing guest
She won't leave you alone
If you go with her
You won't be back
And she won't leave you time
to think or pack
You'll be naked, but you won't lack
And love will be your home
And she's standing
With an outstretched hand, motioning
And you may not understand
But you take her lead
For you have no need but this love
How many storylines
how many years
Of hide and seek
How many tears
Before the living truth appears
And comes to take you home
