Name That Tune

you light up my life and have made me compleat the one i would kiss each day of the week a year and three months to this very day i spoke to you last before you went away many tears have sence fallen and screams i let out just like laughter uncontrolably out of my mouth my greif scourges me every where i went yet to others i looked content each day i kiss your picture and say i love you to your name i guess they're the thing i do to keep from going insane all these thing must have added up to a small message from the God i trust early early this morning after i woke up a music box played just a few notes you light up my life were the notes that it played shocked and awed i was dismayed but when i found the box that had played it was the one i gave you because of the song it played (This is a true story)

I can name that tune, it's our song, the music box you gave me plays it, and yes it's still on my dressing-table...now I'm confused, are there two identical music boxes and did you give the other one to april?

Aprils music box was harliquin sticking up out of a golden drum.it was one of my favorites. But I said to myself that I would give it to her for that reason.after she died I got it back. It was so eerie when it happened.but I thanked God anyway. I have several boxes that play that song. It is so rare that I give something that I collect.
