Brenda Meier-Hans Poet Lyric

I Love You

Each time I think of you I'm breathless
I feel your presence ev'ry where
I go through life on turned back pages
Of memories...........the past.
Your pictures line my walls like shadows
The biggest one is in my heart
I feel your warm breath on my shoulder
And it makes me wild as chills run up and down my spine.

And when I feel your hand take mine so gently
The hand that softly brushed my cheek
Knowing that you're here with me this moment
I, can hardly speak, can hardly speak

We walked these streets once in the sunshine
I hear your laughter echo near
Each step I take your perfume fills my senses and it
Makes me smile oh Lord it makes me smile.

In darkest night I'd lay beside you
Holding you tight I'd long for more
The taste of your lips made me tremble 
Un   till at last............at last
And now vast emptiness beside me
I gently stroke where you once lay
And whisper softly can you hear me 
As I'm calling out your name I'm calling out your name.

And when I feel your hand take mine so gently
The hand that softly brushed my cheek
I know you're here with me this moment
I cannot speak, I cannot speak.

Each time I think of you I'm breathless
I feel your presence ev'ry where
I feel your warm breath on my shoulder 
And it makes me wild as chills run up and down my spine.
As chills run up and down my spine
As    chills    run    up    and    down    my    spine.
