Hold

peto

I'd swim a shark infested sea

Have tidal waves wash over me 

Hand you my old heart's rusty key 

To hold you in my arms 

 

The grand canyon I'd gladly vault 

Then walk the San Andreas fault 

I'd run through razor wire with salt 

To hold you in my arms 

 

I'd tear out every tooth and nail 

Fight through a violent force ten gale 

Then swing a tiger by the tail 

To hold you in my arms 

 

I'd take a bullet's point blank hit 

Go nuclear with an atom split 

And clear what's lurking in your pit

To hold you in my arms 

 

I'd take a bomb blast to the face 

Search every inch of outer space 

To find your happy resting place 

And hold you in my arms

      "search every inch of outer space" Awwww, this is again a favorite of mine because of the rhyme scheme and the sweet content conveyed. Just when I thought I'd found the best, you go and put out another one!!
