When I am lost
You shine a light for me and set me free
When I am low
You wash away my tears
And take me through

The loneliness
And emptiness
Through the darkest night
Somehow I survive
Through it all

When you tell me I'm the only one you need
Sweet and tenderly
And your love
Breaks away the clouds surrounding me
All I have I want to give to thee

If I should fall
Your love is strong enough to life me up
If I'm afraid
You chase away my fears
And take me to

A brighter place
Beyond the rain
And I feel alright
Because you're by my side
Through it all

When you tell me I'm the only one you need
Sweet and tenderly
And your love
Breaks away the clouds surrounding me
All I have I want to give to thee

You take me through
The loneliness and emptiness
And I feel alright
'Cause you're by my side

Through it all
You tell me I'm the only one you need
Sweet and tenderly
And your love
Just breaks away the clouds surrounding me
And baby all I have I want to give to thee

Want to give you all of my love
Now and forever my love
All I have I want to give to thee

    General Comment:This is one of the most beautiful and pretty songs that I have ever heard in my life. I agree with Gabigs - there is such innocence in this song, it's magical. This is such a special song. It's perfect. Only mariah can sing it perfectly - can't imagine anyone else singing it as beautifully as she sings it. This song will always have a special place in my heart, it is simply breath-taking. It's so pure and filled with beauty. Alos reminds me of when I was around 12.. nice memories.

    General Comment:This song touches me deeply because of it's innocence...the music behind it and mariah's voice...altogether it reminds me of how good could be and how eager I am to feel that way again.

    General Comment:This is one of my favorite love songs of all time. Mariah sings it so beautifully. It reminds me of a guy that I like a lot, but will never get the chance to love.
