The Gift Of Knowing You

The beauty of a rose is not a rose
When I compare the essence of my love for you
The stars in the heavens do not outshine
The essence that is you my love, my light

The warmth of loves sweet nectar
The gentle touch of misty rain
Your lips are as sweet as the purest nectar
May your love remain the same throughout the ages
As our love grows as we travel throughout the day

For the tenderness of you has opened a window to my soul
A love that is so pure and open has made my heart complete
So open and so whole with the thoughts of knowing you
I know that I will love you wherever I may roam
For the love that I hold for you
Is the place I call my home

You will always be light that lights up the windows to my soul
I thank the heavens for the chance of loving you
