Standing Between
You got on the bus
Sat beside me
And my soul said "yes"
That there was something
Special about you
We sat and talked
We shared our pain
Then I found
You were like me
And I wondered
Would the comfort
I wanted to give
Also be comfort for me
I asked you
You said "Yes"
So we went together
To a private healing place
I laid hands on you
You laid hands on me
And we shared love
It was a love
With no strings attached
But it was tender
It was soft
It was a demanding fire
And your fire
Stood between me and my pain
And my fire
Stood between you and your pain
And it healed us
I will never forget
Your love, kindness, fire
I will never forget
What we shared
I will never forget you
We stood between
For each other
So for a moment
We could forget
And yet also remember...
