Sun in Your Hands

[Verse 1]
You ask me why I love you
It’s a question on your mind
It’s a complicated answer
But the easiest to find

What is there not to cherish
What is there not to love?
Without you here beside me
I’d be push coming to shove

Is it that warm embrace
Or the smile upon your face?
The way I feel so whole
When I am standing in your space

 

[Chorus]
You’ve got a light
That shines like the sun
You’ve got a light
You’re my only one

So many sides of you
They all fit just right
I’ll hold you forever
Starting with tonight

 

[Verse 2]
Is it the way we talk it out
The openness we share?
Lifting up my heavy heart
When life’s too much to bear

Or is it the compassion
That you show in all you do?
The quiet strength and steady faith
That always pulls you through

Sometimes you don’t even see
The power that you hold
But I see it every single day
As our lives unfold

 

[Chorus]
You’ve got a light
That shines like the sun
You’ve got a light
You’re my only one

So many sides of you
They all fit just right
I’ll hold you forever
Starting with tonight

 

[Bridge]
The hopes you hope
The dreams you dream
Your love for everyone

The giggles and the laughter
When the working day is done
My God, the things I see in you
They bring me to my knees

I pray these times of joy
Will last like a gentle breeze

 

[Chorus]
You’ve got a light
That shines like the sun
You’ve got a light
You’re my only one

So many sides of you
They all fit just right
I’ll hold you forever
Starting with tonight

 

[Outro]
To hold and love
For an eternity to treasure
That’s why I love you
