 I love you just the way you are The piano player sang This was our favourite song Upon each word we'd hang Our song played on the day We were joined in matrimony So much went on around us But only your face did I see Now so many years have passed But I still love you just the same Even now my skin still tingles Every time you call my name I love you just the way you are To this day those words ring true You're my lover and my soulmate All my love I give to you * * * * At the time Andrew and I were married, 13 years ago, "Just The Way You Are" by Billy Joel was our favourite song and held so much meaning for both of us.Throughout our marriage, and long before that we have remained the best of friends and hold a deep love and respect for one another.I dedicate this to my husband, Andrew. I am in motion |

I am so happy for you, Sue... I remember that song very well... My first husband and I used to sing it to each other also... of course we both sang off key... but at least we tried... I loved the poem Lyra |

 (smiles) Oh my goshl I have heard that song too, I love Billy Joel's music so much! Me and Joanna's love song is Whenever, Wherever by Shakira, you probably have heard that countles times in Australia! LOL! (kiss on cheek) May forever and ever your love remain just the way he is, sweet friend, thank you so much for being you, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sue, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Andrew is so fortunate to have a wife like you. But I'm sure he knows that. Wishing you a zillion more years of love and affection for each other. I enjoyed this and so did my Ron.  Huggles, Marti |

Sue, this is so beautiful....all of it...the picture, the poem, the thoughts, but most of all the love story of you and your husband that you have portrayed so lovingly. I'm sure that he loves this, too. By the way, I love that you and he are still best friends. That really makes a difference in a relationship, I believe. "Love makes the world go around" |
