Him

Behind the shadows

There lies the truth

Of a hidden secret

To what has happened

In the eyes

Of the one she loves

There is hate

That no one knows

She tries to run

To get away

From all the pain

That brings dismay

He says he'll change

To be a man

And steal her heart

Away again

Never knowing

What could be

If he'd never been

Her one and only

The bruises and scars

Make her heart bleed

As he brings her down

Down hard to her knees

Finally she sees

A man so sweet

He brings her joy

And sweeps her off  her feet

She found someone

To protect her from all

Knowing he'll always

Catch her fall

No more crying

Acting scared

Just him and her

The perfect pair

She always says

To him each day

Your the one

Who stole me away

I know what it was

I was waiting for you

To save me from him

And forever be true
