Inside of my heart

A lock with no key

Want to set your love

In all its beauty

In all its splendor

The Present

The present I got you

Recommended

Is much bigger than last year

It took time to find something

For someone I hold so dear

I looked high, then I looked low

I looked left, the I looked right

The all of a sudden a card

This card came into my sight

It cost a little more

But for you I’d pay more

Than the card from last year

Which came from the dollar store


Still

Still I have you

Still I have you

After all these years

Still I have you

Much of my life

Is gone

The people I know

The places I’ve been

The years rolled by

Again and again

Still I have you

Still I have you

After all these years

Still I have you

One Liners

  • Don’t listen to people who say Christmas is overrated. Well at least not until you get my gift. Then it is okay.
  • Don‘t think of it as getting older. Wait, think of it just like that…you’re getting older. Happy Birthday
  • Someone once told me love is like stinky cheese. Sometimes it stinks but once you get past the taste and smell true love is delicious.
  • What is my love to you? ill give you a minute.
  • it took me a whole year to remember what I forgot - your Birthday
