(Intro) From her I get … From her I get … (Vs 1) She validates my existence Leaves me always wanting more I just love her sweet persistence Yes, she’s the one that I adore From her I get … (Chorus) Action Main attraction Chain reaction Satisfaction From her I get … Rainbows Anything goes All tomorrows Only she knows From her I get … Laughter Morning after To the rafters Ever after From her I get … Kindness Color blindness Love that binds us To remind us From her I get … (Vs 2) Days overwhelmed by stress and strife My heart was hard my blood ran cold You shared your warmth and love of life That day we met when I struck gold From her I get... (Chorus) Sunshine Beautiful rhyme Says she’ll be mine All of the time From her I get … Romance Rhythmic slow dance Love at first glance Taking a chance From her I get … Blessings Effervescing Love confessing No distressing From her I get … True love Say I do love From up above Fits like a glove From her I get … (Bridge) If selfishness precipitates, love will evaporate Throw caution to the wind then your life will upend If selfishness precipitates, love will evaporate How much better at day's end to be found kind (Vs 3) Knowing I’d be lost without her Communication is the key May God bless our love forever Our three-fold cord eternally From her I get … (Chorus) Action Main attraction Chain reaction Satisfaction From her I get … Rainbows Anything goes All tomorrows Only she knows From her I get … Laughter Morning after To the rafters Ever after From her I get … Kindness Color blindness Love that binds us To remind us (Outro) From her I get … From her I get … (Repeat and fade)

My wife of 50 years is the lucky gal, and I'm the lucky guy :) Yes, I set these to music, but since I can't write musical notation, I've simply got the music in me. Hey, that sounds like another song! Thanks for stopping by, Susan.

I can almost hear the chorus and upbeat music. Is it fast or slow or? I love this! It is well written and I can tell it has a catchy chorus. Romantic too!

Hi, Karen. I love your description of my lyric. The tempo is allegro—quick, lively and cheerful.

Mark, Carol must love this poem and to have a man that declares his love for her... well ... that would make me feel so much better or my worse days. Outstanding my friend!

This is a really lovely, romantic lyric poem Mark. Flows so well with great rhyming. Love the stanza, ‘ From her I get rainbows…’ Really enjoyed reading it. Thank you for sharing. Have a great weekend.
