Babys Got New Clothes

Even though
I never wanted
to leave you,
in my pain one
time I tried,
but you were
quick to tell me
that even though
we were far apart,
you would love me
until the day you died.
Your confession of love
made me love you even more,
and the sincerity we shared
brought us closer together,
and even though for now
we live far apart,
you will always
remain close
in my heart.

Trivia Question:
From which Bob Dylan
song came the words
"babys got new clothes?"

Dear James,
I know one thing for sure: babes go and buy new clothes whenever they are lovelorn ... it's the immediate healing attempt!

Lovely.

Love,
Margherita

Baby's Got New Clothes (Just Like A Woman). My baby and I are also far apart. I need about three more years, here, before we can be together again. Short vacations make absence sweeter.
Thanks,
Melton

Thank you Margherita, aziza, Southern Justice and 2dalimit for the wonderful responses...
2dalimit you are right on the money with the name of the song...
We may be apart but we are still close in heart, and she will be visiting in January and I am excited...as those that believe in love say, absence makes the heart grow fonder...James
