Cowboys and angels
Indians and gnomes
Like loves swells
Within our hearts,
These things
Fill up our home.
Grizzly bears and fairy books
Denim jeans and lace
Sunlight streams
Through kitchen doors,
As I kiss
Your smiling face.
Harley pipes and wind chimes
Neil Young and Prince
Music played
When we first met,
Two hearts dance
Together ever since.
Arguments and apologies
Sobriety and slips
"I love you"
Will always be,
The final words
To pass between our lips.
Tombstone and Brigadoon
Shootouts and songs
No matter what
Tomorrow brings,
It's with each other
We belong.
