Poet and a Prince

She longs for me to hold her
Offer my shoulder
Cherish her as a flower
Adore her as an angel
She longs for a defender
A love-inspired prize fighter
A champion
A charmer
A prince so noble like this

When I look within
Do I see a prince
Smiling back at me
Or do I see a soul that's been swallowed
By selfishness and greed
If I'll ever be a great lover
I must remember this
Love that lasts forever
Is found only in
Jesus

She longs for me to serenade
Think of her throughout my days
Know when to buy her flowers
Talk with her for hours
She longs for a lover
A true man of tenderness
A gentleman
A poet
A prince so noble like this

When I look inside
Do I see the signs
That God is changing me
Or do I see a man still led by self
Yearning to be free
If I'll ever be a great lover
I must remember this
Love that lasts forever
Is found only in
Jesus

He can teach me how to love her
Honor and defend her
How to be a man she laughs with
And she trusts enough to cry with
Someone just like Jesus

She longs for a true lover
I can be this for her
Cause I will learn from Jesus
How to be a man that's tender
His gentleness and strength
And love that spans eternity
He's a champion of true love
He's a gentleman
A poet
A prince
