 A LOVE STORY

At first sight he said it was true love
Said I was an angel sent from above
He wrote me a letter and asked me out
When I said yes all he did was scream and shout
Although me fathers permission was not there
We were in love so we didn't care
It lasted a while until we got caught
The subject of "age" had then been brought
He was four years older so my father said no
But deep inside we knew we had to let our love show
I cried many tears to be with this guy
We knew it was true so we had to try
So then again we went
Dated without my fathers consent
"They're the greatest couple," everyone would say
"You could feel their love when they'd come your way,
They always seemed so happy, not ever mad,
They never even seemed the least bit sad."
But when things always seemed so right
Something always went wrong the next night
My dad found out we were dating again
But we still refused to let it end
My father said "He's not right for you,
He's only after one thing and you know it's true."
Then I said "How could it be?
I haven't given it up and he's still here with me!"
No matter what they say no matter what they do
They can never keep us apart because our love is true
I am his angel and he is my teddy bear
Even when I close my eyes he is always there
I've been through hell for him as he always did for me
Only because deep down we know we are meant to be
To this very day we're still going strong
We know in our hearts this is where we belong
A year and nine months has been a long time
I am still his and he is still mine
We'll face a lot more through our many days
But deep inside we know nothing will ever change
We'll prove to them how much we care and we can make it through
We'll prove to them and the whole world that our love has always been true.
