I want to be with you all the way
To always have you near me
Like a sailor with his boat at sea
Every minute of every day
There is not much else I can say
Except to say you hold the key
To my heart....
If distance should tear us apart
Time will bring us together
As sure as the sky above
You will always have my heart
There is no storm we cannot weather
My everything, my love
Starting tonight, and each day thereafter
I will remind myself how important it is
That I reach out and touch you
Gently, of course, first with my fingers
So I can feel the warmth of your skin,
Next with my eyes, so I see if my love
And yours reflect one to the other
And finally with my words,
Sweet whispers for you alone
Because I don't want to miss feeling you
In any way ever again
Starting tonight, and each day thereafter
Starting tonight, and each day thereafter
I will remind myself how important it is
That I define my love for you
Boldly, of course, first with my body
Because I long for our heated coupling
Next with my mind, as it seeks
To communicate the depth of my feelings
And, most importantly with my heart
Which now beats only for God and for you
Because I don't want to miss loving you
In any way ever again
Starting tonight, and each day thereafter.
