Happy Birthday to My Love

Today is her birthday. Every day I give thanks for finding her.

Always Be Together
Pablo Cruise
When I look back on our early years
And how we spent so much time in tears
It's a wonder that we're face to face tonight
But something saw us through all those times
Something stronger than you or I
Here we are, and now it sure feels right
Oh I have seen
What your love has done for me
And I could stay with you forever
Oh I, I know
Love like this can't help but grow
That's why, we will always be together
When you left me all alone
I could have made it on my own
But part of me was missing
And when we had so much to say
All the words got in the way
Until we took the time to listen
Oh I have seen
What your love has done for me
And I could stay with you forever
Oh I, I know
Love like this can't help but grow
That's why, we will always be together
When I look back on our early years
And how we spent so much time in tears
It's a wonder that we're face to face tonight
But something saw us through all those times
Something stronger than you or I
And here we are, and now it sure feels right
Oh I have seen
What your love has done for me
And I could stay with you forever
Oh I, I know
Love like this can't help but grow
That's why, we will always be together
Always be together
(repeat and fade)

Happy Birthday to My Love

Another favorite song lyric that touches on my feelings for my wife.

God Only Knows
Beach Boys
I may not always love you
But long as there are stars above you
You never need to doubt it
IÂ’ll make you so sure about it
God only knows what IÂ’d be without you
If you should ever leave me
Though life would still go on believe me
The world could show nothing to me
So what good would living do me
God only knows what IÂ’d be without you
God only knows what IÂ’d be without you
If you should ever leave me
Well life would still go on believe me
The world could show nothing to me
So what good would living do me
God only knows what IÂ’d be without you
God only knows what IÂ’d be without you
God only knows
(repeat and fade)

Happy Birthday, Liz.

Happy Birthday to My Love

It's my wife's birthday this week, and Munuviana just happens to share the 14th with her. She was born on Easter day, so the meticulously nosy could figure out how old she is.

This is a song that's special to us both.

She & I
Alabama
She and I live in our own little world
Don't worry about the world outside
She and I agree
She and I lead a perfectly normal life
Ah but just because we aren't often seen socially
People think we've got something to hide.
But all our friends know we're just a little old fashioned
She and I

chorus
Oh ain't that great
Aint it fine
To have a love someone that others can't find
Aint it wonderful to know all we ever need is just the two of us
She and I
So wonderful
She and I
She and I share with every body else
The same wants, needs and desires
She and I save
She and I pay on everything we acquire
Ah but just because we aren't often seen separately
People think we live one life.
Its hard for them to see how anyone could be as close as
She and I
repeat chorus

Made me think of lovely cheese*

Play something sweet

Play something mellow

Play something I can sink my teeth in like jello

Play something I can understand

Play me some Brickyard Blues.
Play something sweet
And make it funky
So I can lay back and grin like a monkey
Play something I can understand
Play me some Brickyard Blues.
-- Three Dog Night

*If I have to explain...
