One Day to Love
07 October 2006

Six days of the week
but only one day to love
That day I fall in love with you
as if it will ever be a dream coming true

A day of hope, a day of faith
this day where your emerald eyes in grace
A smile as wide as the largest ocean
this Pacific embraced within your heart
The moment you and I are together in one
a place neither distant nor oceans departed

As if inseparable and unbreakable
as the strongest glass
A day God will indeed decide
when feelings and affections neither hide

Two, standing together,
your hair brighter than the sun
This day of seven, the one of the rest
because each other day, will be more
In an unbuttoning of passions
to thank Christ and God, the Almighty
letting go and massaging away one in stress
