THIS IS A LOVE STORY, IT STARTED 30 YEARS AGO………..
THEN I WAS YOUNG, I WAS LONELY,
BUT I WAS A DREAMER,
I DREAMED OF LOVE
& SOMEONE WHO’LL LOVE ME & ME ONLY
I HAD GOOD FRIENDS, BUT A VERY FEW
I LOVED GOOD BOOKS ,MUSIC & MOVIES TOO
THEN ONE DAY FROM OUT OF THE BLUE
I MET THIS BEAUTIFUL GIRL
WHOM IT SEEMED I ALWAYS KNEW,
SHE STEPPED STRAIGHT IN TO MY HEART,
AS IF SHE KNEW RIGHT FROM THE START,
IT WAS THE PLACE,
FOR WHICH ONLY SHE HELD THE KEY,
I KNEW FROM THAT MOMENT
LOVE HAD HAPPENED TO ME
SHE BECOME MY SOUL MATE, MY BEST FRIEND
WE SHARED OUR VIEWS ON AUTHORS, BOOKS,
MOVIES …. THE TOPICS NEVER SEEMED TO END
I TOLD HER “A FRIEND IS A PRESENT YOU GIVE TO YOURSELF”
SHE WAS & WILL BE THE ONE ,WITH WHOM I DON’T HAVE TO PRETEND
DAYS WERE LIKE A DREAM WITH HER NEAR AND AROUND ME
I’VE BEEN LUCKY 'CAUSE I FOUND HER AND THEN LOVE FOUND ME
EVENINGS WERE THE TIME TO PART,
LEAVING ME WITH A HEAVY HEART,
NIGHTS WERE LIKE MAGIC WITH HER MEMORIES TO SURROUND ME
OH HOW CAN I EXPLAIN THE FEELING OF LOVE ?
IT’S SOMETHING MAGICAL?, DIVINE? IT COME FROM ABOVE?
ONE CAN’T FIND THE WORDS TO EXPRESS IT
BUT WHEN TRUE LOVE COMES TO YOU, IT COMES ON
THE WINGS OF A DOVE
SHE WAS THE ONE WHO CHANGED MY LIFE,
IT WAS NOT VERY LONG BEFORE WE BOTH SAID
“I LOVE YOU ”
SO WE WALKED DOWN THE AISLE TO SAY
“I DO”
AND WE BECAME MAN & WIFE
BUT BEFORE THIS THERE WAS TROUBLE WITH PARENTS AND FRIENDS
THE WHOLE WORLD WAS TRYING TO TELL US IT’S WRONG
BUT WE KNEW THIS WOULD PASS IF WE JUST STOOD STRONG
THOSE WERE JUST THE TRIALS AND TESTS OF OUR LOVE,
AND WE KNEW THAT TRUE LOVE ALWAYS WINS IN THE END
I MUST CONFESS, THERE HAVE BEEN ROUGH TIMES,
HEARTACHES & HEARTBREAKS, ALONG WITH THE GOOD TIMES
BUT EVEN THROUGH THOSE DARK DAYS OF GLOOM
OUR LOVE STILL PREVAILS, OUR LOVE ALWAYS SHINES
AND WE STARTED A FAMILY
AS TIME PASSED BY WE BUILT ‘FANTASIA ’OUR HOME
WHERE IT FEELS A LITTLE BIT LIKE HEAVEN , WE CALL IT OUR OWN
IT’S STILL THE PLACE WHERE LOVE & HAPPINESS, CARING & SHARING
HAVE GROWN LIKE A GREAT OAK TREE
SHE GAVE ME ALL THE HAPPINESS I REALLY NEVER KNEW
I COULD ALWAYS SEE HER LOVE IN EVERY THING SHE’D DO
SHE GAVE ME ALL HER LOVE ,HER TRUST
WITH ALL THE UNDERSTANDING AND CARE
TWO WONDERFUL GIFTS WHOM WE CHERISH,EVERY DAY
EVERY THING SEEMS COMPLETE IN THIS WONDERFUL WORLD WE SHARE
IT’S 28 YEARS, SINCE THAT DAY WE BOTH SAID ‘ I DO’
AND I STILL LOVE HER LIKE CRAZY,AND I KNOW SHE DOES TOO
THIS IS ALL I CAN THINK OF OR I WANT TO SAY
SHE’S MY DREAM COME TRUE SHE’S MY LIFE
SHE’S IN MY LIFE, FOREVER TO STAY
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO YOU, SUE,
THIS IS OUR LOVE STORY SO SIMPLE, BUT TRUE,
I WANT YOU TO KNOW , I’LL ALWAYS LOVE YOU
YOU ARE THE REASON MY DREAMS HAVE COME TRUE
AND YOU MUST BE KNOWING THAT I STILL ADORE YOU

Yippee! We're one big blogoholic family :D
ReplyDeleteNeedless to say, loved this beautiful composition! Like Mumma has commented, I take pride in having parents with such a unique love story and I shamelessly boast about it to my good friends, but after reading these carefully and wonderfully strung together words did I realize how special the bond you both share really is <3
Love you both and Sweety truckloads! Feel blessed to have such an awesome family *touching wood*
And yes, keep writing Dad \m/
Thanx sue,you are the reason for the love story,if you hadn't stepped in to my life , may be there wouldn't have been any love story. so you are my life, my inspiration, my love. my strength, you are the wind beneath my wings.
ReplyDelete*whistles* for the beautiful couple in the pichaa <3 <3
ReplyDeleteI wonder why I subconsciously touch wood whenever talking, thinking about you both and our family :)
