Your Dad wanted me to look out for you Boys chasing his daughter bothered him But you grew older, now I simply adore you he doesn't know about our feelings within. The fact that I live right beside you's exciting at the gateway to love near discipline We're guided by the power of what's happening the boiling spirit, underneath our skin I don't feel sorry that I dumped your sister she'd always tell them where we'd been now I see her stayin at home waitin while we're drugged with love notes lip to chin. Now here we are in a long airport line up Oh how we prayed for this thrill to begin I don't like it by the window I'll take the isle but I don't want to be far from your grin I thank God for the kindness of growing up and taking this advenbture on the wind We practised many nights and we're ready I'll play the french horn and you the violin They believe us when we say we live for music now you're in grade six now and I'm in seven The school band won these tickets to Boston and I hope we win them next year again!

I can't pretend to know what, or who, hmm? inspired, but it did take an interesting spin--but then you always did spin me nicely! But this? "at the gateway to love near discipline" something about that, intrigued me. Wide smiles. Lovely write E. As ALWAYS. |
