I just have a quick post for today. I'd like to share a song with you. After the wedding, it occurred to me that I had forgotten to request a song to be played at the reception. Too much was going through my mind as it was, I suppose. It really is a beautiful song, and since we missed it then, I thought I might share it with you now.
My Sweet Lady, by John Denver
Lady, are you crying? Do the tears belong to me?
Did you think our time together was all gone?
Lady, you've been dreaming. I'm as close as I can be.
And I swear to you our time has just begun.
Close your eyes and rest your weary mind. I promise I will stay right here beside you.
Today our lives were joined, became entwined.
I wish that you could know how much I love you.
Lady, are you happy? Do you feel the way I do?
Are there meanings that you've never seen before?
Lady, my sweet lady, I just can't believe it's true.
And it's like I've never ever loved before.
Close your eyes and rest your weary mind. I promise I will stay right here beside you.
Today our lives were joined, became entwined.
I wish that you could know how much I love you.
