I Love You

I Love You

As I look in your eyes, I cannot catch my breath
It’s like my hearts been reborn and brought back from death

This feeling I get is both blissful and surreal
I am deeply in love, that is all I can feel

When I’m lost in your eyes, I’m above every cloud
I no longer see rain, with your love I’m endowed

When I look at the stars or the moon you have hung
I feel your beat in my heart, and your breath in each lung

I’ll be a shield for your heart, I’ll absorb all your pain
I will give you my life, so my deaths not in vain

With you in my arms, I’ve learned the true meaning of life
I will cherish each moment, with my beautiful wife
