Loving You.

Post by Bob Pacey » Tue Oct 23, 2012 6:49 am

LOVING YOU.

The morning light shines softly
through the window by the bed.
I lie and watch you sleeping
gentle curls about your head.

Oh how all things become familiar
when the daily grind takes hold;
but we've mellowed slow and gently
as old age has taken hold.

One thing I know for certain
my love is stronger now.
Then the three score years and four my love
when we first pledged our vow.

The hard times have been many
and still more yet to bear.
But I'm sure our love can stand the test
we have so much more to share.

There is no one else for me my love
I've known it from the start.
That first quick glance that told me
only you can have my heart.

So I lie and watch you sleeping
at what you dream I wonder too.
But I know until the twelfth of never
I will still be loving you.

Not bad Bob. Unfortunately I'm old enough to remember Johnny Mathis. ;) :lol: A commentator that I read, suggested that if you use some else's well known line it is better to use it in a different way than they did.
