I LOVE WHEN YOU SAY GOODBYE, BECAUSE THEN I KNOW THAT I HAVE A SWEET REUNION TO LOOK FORWARD TO UPON YOUR RETURN!

..........LIFE..........

What is beauty, my sweet lady fair?

Does it matter in the end?

Do you really care?

I come to revel in your sweetness,

Take you by the hand,

To travel this fine world,

Let me show you how to stand.

Not much have I to offer,

Yet so many things to say.

I'll love you more tomorrow,

Even more than yesterday!

In the mornings when you wake,

In the nights when you're asleep.

I will hold you in my arms,

As we share in kisses deep.

I've been here from the beginning,

I will be there at the end.

I will hold your hand forever,

An eternity will I spend.

It was never about your looks,

It was never about your eyes,

It was always, my sweet lover,

How you said such sweet goodbyes!
