Because

Because

Because 

Your love brings music to my soul

  Passion to my doldrums 

  Peace to my chaos

  Serenity to my wind tossed seas

  So in gratefulness to my knees 

  I bow

  And ask you to marry me 

   all over again

   Again and again

   And again and again 

   To call you my wife, my lover, my friend

   Is the most beautiful sound that I know

Within these tunes and tones our love does grow 

Into the hum of the mighty mountains

Eternal

Strong

Sentinel 

Beyond

What anyone could ever hope or wish for

That is what this gift means to me

So that is why I give it to you

To hear the sounds of our love travel across the lands

Across the seas

Into our gardens

Amongst our trees

I am forever home with you

I Yearn for You

I Yearn for You

As the ocean yearns to reach the shore

So I yearn to reach to you.

As the moonlight softly touches earth

So I so softly reach to you.

As the sunlight warms the lonely soil

So your smile does help me glow.

As the wind whispers secrets through waving arms

So your heartbeat I do know.

As the stars appear on quiet nights

So I will appear to you.

As the rosebud bursts to sudden bloom

So my love does grow for you.

As the bird’s songs rise into the sky

So my heart does sing a song

As I see you and know you every day

So there my love for you grows strong.
