For Denise
Simply for loving me
Contents
Love it
Before you
Blue horizon
I don’t remember
Somewhere summertime
Last book I read
Morning sunlight
She is a road
Her stockings
Cappuccino
In twenty years
When hearts break
Tell me why
Her bra
Love is like the sunshine
Making Pictures
Every time I hold you close
Where is the woman that I married?
After you
Calendar Girl
Love it
It’s hard to not sing a song about love.
We all want to feel it,
To know it,
To be wrapped up in it.
To taste it,
Fall into it,
And try not to fall out of it.
So we seek it,
Till we find it,
And shout about it.
Give into it,
Fight for it,
Hold on tight to it.
We share it,
Would die for it,
Sometimes we cry over it.
We nurture it,
Delight in it,
Be overcome by it.
We stand for it,
Believe in it,
Forgive on account of it.
Live for it,
Breathe in it,
Exist just because of it.
Sing of it,
Write about it,
Hurt from the pain of it.
Dance for it,
Do for it,
To the point we are moved by it.
We are found by it,
Bound by it,
And even act out of it.
We read about it,
We dream about it,
But best of all, we love it.
Before you
Before you say another word,
Before you laugh at what you’ve heard,
Let every tiny thought just seem to be.
Before you sing another song,
Before you right what once was wrong,
I only want to hear you say you love me.
Before you go to sleep at night,
Before each time you hold me tight,
Remember that it is my heart you’re holding.
Before you hold my hand in yours,
Before you show the cards you’ve drawn,
In the game of love I am already folding.
Before we age as lovers do,
Before this life of ours is through,
I want you to know your love has made me stronger.
Before you say how can that be?
In a love that lives eternally,
Just know I wish that I could love you longer.
Before in Heaven we do meet,
I’ll thank you for a life so sweet,
And we’ll invent new ways to fall in love again.
Before eternity does start,
Your love is still within my heart,
Only Heaven’s love is free from all earth’s pain.
Before we stroll within the clouds,
And remember this love on earth of ours,
I’ll stop talking long enough so I can kiss you.
So before we now turn off the lights,
Before we shake the stars at night,
I’ll take every moment I have left to love you.
