You Make Me Feel

Your eyes are like gentle blue clouds on a soft grey sky

When you look at me, I see into you and realize why

Why your smile melts my heart like ice cream on a thirsty tongue

You’ve given me a new song

Your big laugh is like musical chimes

I laugh back and it rhymes

When you kiss me, I forget the world

And in that moment, it’s just you and I solid like a block of gold

Two hearts that beat like one

We make love and we become one

I am yours and you are mine

So precious, so divine

You are to me, all that I’ve ever yearned for

I got on my knees and I prayed for

Then that day came, on a wet winter day

You smiled at me through a glass door on a rainy day

And handed me a red rose with a supple embrace

I felt your heart beat and mine began to race

That was the moment I knew it was you

That one, the one, so present, so true

Now I go to bed with a head filled with dreams
