First attempt at songwriting

Verse 1:
I fell in love with the music man
the day I learned to sing
and he took me 'cross the desert
with my heart tied to a string.

Refrain:
And then I knew that love was true
for as we've all been told-
the bitter heart gets better
and the granite turns to gold.

Verse 2:
He wrote me songs about the dawn
and braver I became
'til the notes no longer blended
and he handed me the flame.

Refrain:
And then I knew that love was true
for as we've all been told-
the bitter heart gets better
and the granite turns to gold.

Verse 3:
I turned and found my soulmate true
he took me by the hand
and bound up my forgetful wounds
with kisses of the sand.

Refrain:
And then I knew that love was true
for as we've all been told-
the bitter heart gets better
and the granite turns to gold.

Yes, then I knew that love was true
for as we come to see
the timid heart is truer
when the music comes to be.
