THE RISK OF LOVE
by Richard Maxfield
4-2-99

I know I want it but I am not real sure
if love again can be the cure
hurt so bad in the past
by a love, that did not last
I know for sure that I must
learn to love and learn to trust
to give my heart away again
to a lover and a friend
take that risk with my heart
take the risk that she will part
don’t look back and take the leap
the risk of love is never cheap
but to have someone in my life
take the chance, for a wife
to share my dreams and my days
to be in love in so many ways
hold her hand and take a walk
hours spent in loving talk
rub her back and kiss her toes
for no reason, to send a rose
to fulfill all her needs
brighten each day with good deeds
draw her close, whisper in her ear
make my love known and make it clear 
warmth of a tight embrace
tenderly kiss her beautiful face
holding each other through the night
making love will fell so right
I will take the chance with my life
to find the one to be my wife
the risk of love is never cheap
I know for sure I will take the leap
