I have convinced myself that time must have ended
And then began again when I first met you.
Oh my God!, how very young I was
And you older and wiser than I.
None of that mattered to me.
Walking, talking and dreaming on such a beautiful day like this.
Nikki-Lynn,
Come over here for a minute.
Just play along with me,
Humor me!
Close your beautiful eyes
Picture walking along; what we call our River of Love
Sit and relax on a soft carpet of green
Feel a cool breeze of mist from the water that rushes over the rocks and stones
If you listen hard enough,
You'll hear the River of Love singing
Now, if you listen to the sound of the leaves,
When the wind blows through the trees,
Their rustling adds a heavenly harmony to her singing.
Can you hear it?
I watch my beauty as she lives in the moment
I can see a school girl's imagination take her to world of magic
And I too, am whisked away into the moment
When I notice at the corner of her eye
A flash of light where a Diamond appeared bright,
Sparkling as it slowly move down her beautiful cheek
That's when I felt a tightness in my throat
I never would have believed,
That she could be even more radiant than she is.
Nikki-Lynn,
I whispered quietly in her ear
Open your eyes my love
There's something I wish to say
You know I love you
There is nothing I wouldn't do for you
You know I will always be there
In times of troubles, In times of need
If you're feeling sad, You can count on me to lift your spirits up
I'll give you a wink and you will know to smile
I'll give you a hug and stand by your side
Nikki, what I'm trying to say is
I would do any...OH MY GOD!
I want you to...
How can I..
Nikki-Lynn,
Will you marry me?
I'll never forget that day.
Thant was that hardest thing for me to do.
Well, it's getting late and I have to get back home.
Standing here looking down at your stones,
Breaks my heart.
Taken from me on Easter Sunday, I should have been with you and Codyli
It was he and Ia's birthday that day
Only five years old
Well I always repeat the same issues,
Got to go, I love you two...
