A Yellow Ribbon

Reality and romance
Are often far apart.
We can dream and imagine,
But that can lead to heartache.

Is there such a thing
As a true and honest love?
Could you be the one?
Do you care?
I've tied a yellow ribbon
Around my heart.

I'm very cautious and slow to reveal
With my words and with my actions,
For reasons you probably know.
I've one last question to ask:
Can I trust you with my heart?

Tara Egan - January 3, 1994
