Just & Always You

         Just & Always You
         to help me fill my life
         Just & Always You
         husband to my wife

         I know it is eternal
            and exclusive
         for I cherish each
          contour of your face
         I know my heart will 
            feel you always
         because your smile fills
           up its space

         all the shadows of yesterday
         all the tears of heartaches past
           fade away because of you
               with you just joy
                can hope to last

          I will not make plastic promises
          for promises bend and are broken
           and I speak no vows to you
          for vows are so often words just spoken
           but this I will give you
                my loyalty and passion
            and a million and one clues
            to let you know my life mate
                is Just & Always you
