                          Oh I'd throw the finest times away
                            and the fortune that came my way
                            to have you here by my side.
                            And I'd give all the wealth I've brought along
                            to the singer of a song
                            that could put you by my side.
                            I can't say why or what it is
                            that makes me crazy for your love,
                            you don't even know my name.
                            Yet I know if you were here
                            and we could share our love
                            all my wishes would be explained.

                            Oh I'd build a road to alter destiny
                            there'd be no rest for me
                            till I could be by your side.
                            And I'd ship my special treasures to the distant moon
                            just to be in a room
                            with you by my side.
                            I don't know why my worried cares
                            have kept me from your door
                            because you've always been the same
                            but I know if I had no fear
                            I'd ask for love and nothing more
                            but I'm afraid my words would be in vain.

                            And I know lovers bring out sunshine
                            and moonlight brings romance
                            and each day brings love tomorrow
                            to those that take a chance.
                            Yet I wish I could bring out a way
                            to tell you what I have to say,
                            I wish I could kill this foolish pride.
                            Oh yes I wish in a very special way
                            I could have you here by my side.

(smiles) Oh Eric, this is wonderful, sweet friend, I share this same yearning and long for my dream girl to greet me from the alter so I can praise her grace! (big hugggsssssss) This is a lovely song, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Eric, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
