lyrics

You Were Made To Love



Crafted by the hands of a father, you were built as a gift for the son
Every timber, every frame, every window, reflected the depth of his love

And somewhere in the midst of the creating, he placed in you a part of his soul
It was his heart that his family should be cared for, and he knew you would love them as your own.


Ch: You were made to love, you were made to give
You were made to stand the test of time, you were made to live
It was your legacy, to keep the family safe and warm
It is your destiny to be a refuge from the storm.


But the son wasn’t like the father, for somehow he just couldn’t see
You were more than simply wood and mortar, you were part of the family.

But, you were sold, when he left to seek his fortune, and one by one you passed through many hands
All the promises within went undelivered, as you waited for your chance to love again.

Ch:

On down through the years you were neglected, for somehow no one saw your need
And deep within, the pain of the rejection, took it’s toll, and left you heart to bleed.

And at times it seemed that this would be your story, at times it seemed that this might be your end
But the soul of the man still lived within you, and he whispered of a chance to love again.

Ch:

Now not so long ago one autumn evening, you met the one who would finally see
You were more than simply wood and mortar, you had soul, and were part of the family

Came the day that you had long awaited, she asked you to forgive all of the past
And as she opened up her heart to receive you, you knew your chance to love again, had come at last.

Ch:
