My words here on paper are real
As real as my love for you.
We were sixteen, sweet sixteen
And forty years later, our love is still true.
Each time I see you my heart skips a beat
The blood rushes through my veins
Bringing sweet harmony, taking away pains.
You are my rock, my strength, the reason I live
You stand tall for me, always there for me.
I love you with such intensity it hurts, my sweet
Until the sun dies, the stars will no longer be
I will love you more than there are stars in our sky,
Love you more than there are grains of sand,
I will love you more than ever before
Until I can no longer hold you by the hand.
