Sitting here today with you wife As happy as a man can be, Comes a vision of long, long ago wife And in memory I can see A sweet face framed in the midnight Of her hair -- and such glorious eyes -- A flame with a tender lovelight In who's wonderous depts there lies A story as old as creation And as sweet as the breath of a rose That makes life one long re-creation Filled with joy no other heart knows. Red lips made only for kisses, And oh such a form to caress, Earth holds no other such blisses None other complete happiness. You came to me long ago dear one, In a vision so real it seemed That my heart was broken -- life undone-- When I knew 'twas only a dream. But my heart led me on straight to you As the needle returns to the pole -- And only God knows how I love you, Dear Dream Woman of my soul. |
