It's Okay To Say ...
~Marge Tindal~ 1999

It's okay to say I love you
with a smile or a glance.
It's okay to give your heart,
okay to take a chance.

It's okay to tell another
just how much they mean.
And it's okay to say I love you,
to someone you haven't yet seen.

If you really mean it,
and it gives your heart ease,
it's okay to state your love
in any fashion that you want,
to anyone you please.

The worse that can happen
and you'll wear it with grace ...
is you may come away
with egg-on-your-face.

But even that is okay,
if you meant what you said.
I love you, I love you .
Fried, scrambled or over-easy
I've nothing to dread.

So I say I love you,
though sometimes
my heart takes a beating.
But I truly love you,
and it bears repeating.

I love you
I love you
I love you

Erynn - Thanks.
Hoot - Honey, it's the easiest thing I've ever done. Sometimes it came back in tiny shattered pieces ... honestly, it gave me more to give out the next time.
I've always received back more than I ever gave out.
Honest injun!

Justin Ebriated - Go to your room !
Your thoughts are appreciated.
Sleep it off and read it again.
I'm definitely NOT one of 'ush'.
