There are so many things
I love about you;
I couldn’t possibly
Get them all out.
You are my motivation;
You are everything.

I love the way you tell me
It'll be alright just when I think
It will all fall apart--
No one else could convince me like you do.
And the way you touch me when all seems lost
Will always be a mystery to me.

How do you know just what to say
To break my soul out of its habit of self-pity?
And how do you still stand by my side?
I'm not sure I understand
How you love me so persistently.
I find irresistible the way you speak to me--

With a voice so soft,
So understanding to a complicated heart like mine.
Even when I don't understand these emotions,
You have a solution to my problem.
Oh, you'll never know
What an inspiration you are to me!

I won't go; I won't sleep; I can't breathe until you're resting here with me...

Don't know why this was lying back there going unnoticed...So back to the front you go for all the others...   Love is all over the page on this one...Liked it much... ~LL~ < !signature-->

The way to love anything is to realize it might be lost.  author unknown
