For Noah

While in my childhood
I had the most beautiful dreams
Alot of things misunderstood
Or so it seems

I was daddy's little girl
So I wanted a guy just like dad
He sheltered me from the world
Chasing away the boyfriends I had

I searched the world thoroughly
Looking in every direction
but when it comes to perfection
You're as close as it gets

You're a good man
I know dad would approve
He'll just have to understand
That I'm grown enough to choose

In my eyes, you are perfect
Of my gentle heart, you are worth it
You bring me the utmost happiness
Nothing is more important than this

Before you I didn't know what love meant
You've shown it to me unlike the rest
I know things can't be perfect 100 percent
but we're at 99, it's as close as it gets

I want to rest in the clouds
Sight-see way up there
Mingle in the angel crowd
but there's no halo in my hair
Someday I'll be in heaven
but for now, you're as close as it gets!

Happiness to you both.
