Analysis of Come Take My Hand
Come take my hand
And walk with me,
From the tallest mountain
To the edge of the sea
Over mountains
Along the creeks,
Where waterfalls fall
And the wind brushes your cheeks.
As I gaze into your eyes
Like a diamond shines,
I get lost in the moment
Lost in the twilight of time.
My heart feels the joy
Joy of your friendship past
May the feeling be expressed
Now and forever it shall last.
Rays of pure sunshine
Resemblance of your beauty
I feel the radiance in my soul
It becomes a part of me
Your sweetest sounds
As heaven to my ears,
My beating heart
Can only express it to my dear.
As I gaze upon thee
Cherishing the breathe you take
Every moment with you
Is every moment wake.
