Memories of Loving You

Memories of loving You

---ooo---

I hold your face between the palm of my hands

your eyes have that look that says, you understand

over the years you had given me so very much

your sweetest love, your heart and passionate touch

*****

Such joy you have brought me, I really can't explain

and yet through all those years, deep love's remained

what started as a friendship, turned quickly into love

I'm grateful to you darling, for all now that I have

*****

You have such depth in your feelings, and it really shows

it was like you spoke a language - that makes my heart aglow

and as this day is so special, like all our yesterdays

you'll be held in my heart and memory, for ever and always

*****

Excuse me being sentimental, but many years we've shared

I just wanted you to know, that I really care

I love you very deeply, honestly, I do

and I thank my lucky stars, for bringing you

*****

So together we'll celebrate - this, a special day of days

and honour each other, in the simplest little ways

Champagne and candles by a crackling old log fire

remaniscent of our hearts entwined, passion, desire

****

all those memories we hold, like a loving warm embrace

so I'm telling you this,

with a kiss

- as I hold your lovely face!
