My Heart's Always Ready

 

My heart's always ready

when you come home

They ask-

Aren't you lonely?

but I'm never alone

My heart's always ready

Please don't ever doubt

My love is a pillar

you won't be without

When you're trapped by the world,

ensnared in her web,

battered and damaged

by unkind words said,

There's one place

you'll always be safe from the storm,

where human inhumanity

can do you no harm

My heart's always ready,

my arms ever wide,

the hearth always warm

when you come inside

So go where you must

on adventure's wide sea,

knowing your voyage

won't take you from me
