She wore a white wedding gown, but any fool could plainly see
The groom about to make her a wife, should have been me
What turned us away from each other, I can't seem to recall, but I missed
Out on marrying the girl of my youth, and the pain to this day
Hurts worst of all, so if you have someone special, and want to get down
On bended knee, listen to this old boy's plea, be sure with all of your
Might that you really love her, with all of your heart and soul
Look what happened to me

Colored leaves of fall, come down on the square,  lovers seem to be
E verywhere, I want to show you some tender care, just whisper my name
Just whisper my name on the phone,and i'll be there, I'll be the friend to protect you, never treat you mean or disrespect you, just know that all times, i'll be there, waiting patiently when all others , have turned away
And gone, my love will be the anchor, that keeps you hanging on
Just whisper my name, on the phone, and i'll be right there

Our love is a song to remember, one that will be recalled, down through
The years of time, a symphony tenderly played, on the piano keys of life
Much like a stirring, Chopan composition, unforgettable to both the heart
And mind, to rest peacefully forever,within our mortal souls

I still see your face, even in my dreams, some things never change
So it seems, it was christmas each day, when you were here with me
Now I'm talking in my sleep,could it be that my wedding ring, on
That left finger,hurt your sense of pride, or else why aren't you here
Now,by my  forever, by my side, tears I can no longer hide,
Sweet memory, now gone, they were the best days, of my life

When you're looking in the mirror, tell me, who and what do you see
Is the image of one who is crooked, or as honest as can be, soul and
Conscience die and are washed away, when you cheat others and lie,
And when you close your eyes, and try to sleep at night, peace won't
Give your mind a try,you can't point your finger or talk , about somebody
Else's life,if your own isn't right,learn to respect yourself and others
If its day or night

I am not yet ready,to taste of death, nor smell its foul, and rancid breath
Slowly stripping the very life, from my human bones, yet know inside
That each man, born on this earth, must die alone, i know not the one
Who penned,''It's not the length of the life, but how well it was lived''
Time may not place  or number me, among the immortals, but  i carry
The knowledge within, that in all of my living days, i gave , and sought
Out love, in this crowded space

Sometimes, in a loving relationship,there must be two on board
If one wants to jump out of the bat, than pain is the only reward
It takes two , to make the thing work, one can't be slipping around
In the dark,doing dirt, be of a made up mind, to cherish each other
From nine to five, please don't be selfish , just thinking about yourself
Because your once true love, will soon start looking around and reaching
For somebody else, it takes two people, to keep love real and true
