~~~~ The easiest thing I have ever done Is to fall in love with you. No instructions had to be surveyed No parts to affix with glue. Mail-in rebate that takes so long Was absent from this deal. The one and only guarantee Was the rapture that I'd feel. I didn't have to practice poise Or to worry about my clothes. For in your eyes I was a lady fair Perfect from head to toes. Yes, falling in love was a simple task Because of your gallant heart. And the sincerety with which you promised me That we would never part. ~~~~ Chris Barker 2003 ~~~~~~ |

Beautiful Chris... Seems your muse has awoken from her winter's nap. Knowing you and who this was written for makes it all that more special... Give that Harley guy a hug for me okay? ~Luv and miss you, Teed~ ~ Trace my body with your words.. And in doing so, you touch my heart. ~ [This message has been edited by Enchantress (02-27-2003 05:05 PM).] |

yes, there is always sincerity when promises are made .... when the hearts are full of love. A gentle song of quiet awareness that you will never part. Margherita |

It's easy to fall in love. But it's hard to fall out of love. Thanks for this. the Wind is invisible. |
