I’VE NEVER MET A MAN AS SWEET AS THIS

Way over a decade I’ve lived
I’ve never met a man
as sweet as this
Through dusty lanes
and broken roads
Through mistakes and stories
Better left untold
I’ve never met a man
As sweet as this.

Knocking fear in the face
Dispelling doubt
Outstretched hands
In times so down
I’ve never met a man
as sweet as this.

Who kindles the torch
And sweeps the floor
In search of the one
That’s so so lost
I’ve never met a man
as sweet as this.

Who calls out a feast
With merriment of heart
Because he has finally found
A child that had gone astray
I’ve never met a man
as sweet as this

Who bore the guilt
That wasn’t his to bear
Who took the nails
That wasn’t his to wear
All for love too strong to declare
To show me he cares
He took my place.
I’ve never met a man
As sweet as this.
