"A thing of beauty is a joy forever: its loveliness increases; it will never pass into nothingness."
John Keats


You know I have thought about
Everything you’ve said about
Me and I just wonder ‘bout
How you could have noticed.

And lately I have felt
Like you are somethin’ else.
You always make me melt
When you look at me.

Oh x9

You seem to know what
You are talkin’ bout and
I just can’t live without you.
Oh x6

You give me everything by
Not buying anything and
Loving me all the time
But diamonds don’t hurt, no.

No, oh, oh. They don’t hurt, no.

Baby, you’ve got me in the palm of your hand.
Tied around your finger
Like a wedding band.
Baby, don’t stop me,
I just need your love.
I can’t let go and say
That I’ve given up.

Oh x3 Yeah x2

Baby, let go, no hold me tight.
I don’t wanna be alone
For one more lonely night.
Baby, tell me,
This is too good to be true.
How can someone like me deserve
Someone like you?

Baby, I need you.
You are my life.
And I just can’t wait to be
Your wife.
So that I can say
From your head to your toes,
I love you forever
No matter how forever goes.
Oh, how forever goes.

I wrote this piece originally for my sister and her boyfriend who have been together for over a year. I think they're going to be part of that small percent of people who grow up and marry their high school sweet hearts.

Thank you very much! I actually had no clue - this was my first crack at songwriting. But it was for my sister and her boyfriend, so I went all out. I'm glad you like it, and I hope I do too... lol :)

I lift my lids and all is born again.

This is beautiful! Writing songs is hard, but you really seem like you know what you're doing. And the lyrics, especially the first part, remind me a lot about how I feel about my girlfriend. Keep writing, I hope to hear your songs on the radio some day. :)
