Steal Away

No eyes will ever take his place

No smile, nor peaceful face

The depths of where he reaches

The amazement never ceases

He's not here but yet he is

He's not mine, but I am his

Forever assigned to the one

Whose hold on me is second to none

Refusing the offer to let go

Hope eternal doesn't know

It's torture but it's oh so sweet

A trolley on a two-way street

Goes left, goes right, and back again

Returning to where it's always been

And alas my heart does wander by

The road of wonder, the road of why

To which I cannot give a reason

Or predict the wind in any season

But with certainty I can surely say

Nobody else can steal me away
