I see the trace of her outline as she walks into the sunset
A silhouette against the twilight
Soon the moon will rise and with it my hopes
Just as I know she will return
We reveled in these good times
As this day turns into night
We shall cherish all we have
We shall love with all our might
This portrait shall stay with me
In my heart, alive

It’s the end of our beginning
Beyond infatuation
Real commitment
The realization
Each day shall bring us closer
Even when we are away

This feeling we share
Unites us in so many ways
Crashing through our lives
Like so many waves
Ever in my thoughts
Her radiance so desired
I just want to be close to her
We have arrived

In wonder
I give thanks for a brand new day
Moving forward
Maybe ahead of the game
I’m feeling up
It’s gonna be all right
I got my baby
She loves me
I’m full of fight
Ready to learn
To see the light
Dreaming together
A holy mystery of love
Living for today
For her and me

Some things you want to remember
Some things you can’t forget
Some days are filled with joy
Some days are full of regret

Some days are meant for love
Some days that love is gone
Some feelings last forever
Somehow you just carry on

Everyone’s got a someone
Their good old used to be
Someone who still lingers in a heart
But will never be
That one and only
Yet is a lifetime love
Here’s to those special loves
Some have more than one

Today is our 15th Anniversary! Lucky guy I am.

This is for you
What must be said
Simply and often
From my heart and head
You changed my life
You give me a thrill
Each time we kiss
Say you will
Be mine forever
Be kind to me
Forgive my failings
I want to be
Your best man
Every day
Give me your heart
In love all the way

I need you
I love you
Always
Be mine
We’ve made it this far
We’ll go to the finish line
Love me, don’t leave me
Forgive me my sins
I’m trying, really trying
I’ve so much love within
I can show you
Give me a kiss
Now wasn’t that nice?
Complete bliss?

Hold me baby, tell me it will be all right
I’ve been running in circles, I’m uptight
Need a break, some rest and recoup
The pressure is constant
Thank God I’ve got you

There go the years
Our times in the sun
It’s not over yet
More is to come
I’m yours forever
Your companion for fun

So here’s to our past
The present for sure
The future is ours
Our love is secure

Hold me baby, tell me it will be all right
Hold me baby, with all of your might
Thank God I’ve got you each and every night

Two
No two ways about it
There’s only one of us
Two for all the good times
Win place and show
In the winners circle
We always go
The plan is to keep on
All the days and nights
To please each other
We won’t give up the fight
We appreciate our good fortune
We know what to do
Keeping it together
Each day something new

I’ve had good fortune, lovers, and certainly bad luck
I’ve lived a full life and really shouldn’t complain about mistakes I shouldn’t have made
I’m trying to forgive myself, but some stains ever stay
I’m flawed, but not broken
Facing the end of my days
How much longer will I be here?
Am I accomplishing enough?
So much to be proud of
Still, there is shame and disappointment
I shall go on just as life goes on
Trying to be better every day
Doing my best to love
To keep my dear wife happy
It’s enough to make a man pray
