Marriage (what I think it should be)

There’s a ring on my hand
A ring on yours
Together we’re walking toward
Heaven’s doors
And I look
At you
You look
At me
And in your eyes
I can see eternity

We are one you and I
Two hearts beating side by side
Life is a story still untold
But with each breath it unfolds
Hand in hand, fingers entwined
Chasing the wonders of passing time

There’s a power of direction in your hand
There’s a need for protection from life’s demands
And so together we can fly
You and I
Spaces in between are shrinking
Every day
And now I am seeing
That though I can live without you
Part of me can’t find;
Anything without you

So I hold you
And you hold me too
I feel your heart beat against my chest
Every beat only pulls me closer
And it keeps beating without a rest
A rose in on the table between the two
Me and you
Your eyes are shining like stars
From a galaxy so far
And you make me wonder
I sit and ponder
All the events that brought us
All the things that taught us
All the lies that broke us
How life betrothed us
I am amazed
By the look on your face
And I am amazed
That you’re with me
And I’m with you Now
I’m holding,The only one,
that’s the truth

Here I am a lovesick fool
After twenty years of lying next to you
It never died but sometimes it faded away
But never for more the ½ second every hundredth day
Because when love is meant to be
That’s when we find everything That we’ll ever need

We are one you and I
Two hearts beating side by side
Life is a story still untold
But with each breath it unfolds
Hand in hand, fingers entwined
Chasing the wonders of passing time
