She loved dresses of lace,
Silk suits he adore.
She brought hers in an antique place,
He at the finest gentlemen's store.
When he first saw her she took his breath away,
She blushed when he asked for her hand.
On the dance floor they would sway,
Everyone said they looked so grand.
He knew he wanted to share her life,
She made his heart sing.
So in front of 50 people he made her his wife,
With a golden wedding ring.
Yet as with life they grew older as time flew by,
His health grew dim.
Most of the time she would sit around and cry,
Wondering how she'd ever live without him.
The day came when she awoke to find he had past in his sleep,
She thought her heart would never mend.
Until she spotted the note on the sheet,
He had written I'll miss you darling until we dance again.
