Lyrics
May you be blessed as you go on your way
May your hearts rest in the freedom of love
May you be guided peacefully with each new day
And always remember what your are made of
You are made of love
Chorus
Love is a winding road,
Feelings, emotions arise as you go
Sometimes we laugh sometimes we cry
Sharing life as days go by
A most sacred union ever so pure
And at this beginning, ahead,
There's so much in store . . . . .
Love is patience, acceptance
Compassion, protection, feeling, touching, holding, embracing
And sometimes even the dark times facing
It's all encompassing, the good the bad
Ugly, happy, sad
The joy the pain, the sunshine, sunshine, and rain
Chorus
May you remember always to count your blessings in the midst of despair
Remembering that God is always there
May your find the gift of laughter in the middle of a fight
Knowing everything, everything comes from the light
Every, everything everything comes from the light
When into each other's eyes you gaze
Finding the beauty and depth and always amazed
Knowing that love is our most precious gift
To cherish and hold not to resist
Chorus
Love is a winding road . . . .
