If I had But One Wish

~If I had but one wish

my wish would be of you~

~To kiss your sweet in pouting lips

would be my wish come true~

~To walk with you in holding hands

as lovers often do~

~Barefoot in the Ocean’s sand

would be my wish come true~

~To know the tender of your touch

lying next to you~

~To hear you say three words of love

would be my wish come true~

~To ask in that be of your hand

hear you say I do~

~To know in that I am your man

would be my wish come true~

~In fifty years to celebrate

in that of kissing you~

~Locked in that of full embrace

would be my wish come true~

~My every wish upon of star

is only that of you~

~Marry me in fill my heart

make my wish come true~

My Life Be Empty

~My life be empty not for you

you are of what in all I do~

~You are the sun that rises morn

my life be that you have adorn~

~Of that the Moon you are the light

that shines so bright within the night~

~The stars the sky that guides the way

when we are lost and gone astray~

~My blood runs hot in through my veins 

within my heart for you love reigns~

~In that you are my every thought

of all I do and all I want~

~You are my soul in Heaven’s wait

without of you Hell be my fate~

~You give me reason in that to be

of that you are my destiny~

~In all you do of all you give

you are the reason in that I live~

~And if I die before I wake

I’ll wait for you at Heaven’s gate~

forever more eternity~

For Eternity and Next A Day

~No life have I with not of you

I say you this my Darling true~

~The air of which that I must breath

to keep your love I would bequeath~

~The sun that warms and gives Day light

the very moon that shines at night~

~The stars that guide the sailor’s way

the beauty their marvel on display~

~My every wonder is that of you

 my reasoning for all of that I do~

~For you my Darling are my life

loving you but grows in rife~

~No life have I with not of you

life without you I would not do~
