To love yourself

To love yourself so dearly and tenderly 

Must be a script written throughout your life 

For a night like tonight 

For a day like today 

When you are the only one 

Left standing with you 

When you are the only one 

Sitting beside yourself 

To love yourself so dearly and tenderly 

Let it be the light that pierce through your night 

When the evening shadows are all you see 

And their silence is all you hear 

Find it in the depth of your despair 

To be kind and all loving 

With the love that has carried you through 

Through the ragging years 

To love yourself so dearly and tenderly 

Let it be the embrace that carries you through.
