True Love Never Knows Why

Sometimes I can't help wondering Why doubt can always find A place where it can live and grow Inside a troubled mind. So, when our love is questioned, How may we reply? There's a very simple answer -- "True love never knows why". True love never ever knows -- It won't ask you why. Hearts in love can never ask Why feelings haven't died. Love is just contentment That never says good-bye To hearts that know and realize True love never knows why. The answers we search for To questions of all sorts Often are hard to come by.-- That's when the doubting starts. We should not ever let love Waver, wither, and die When we can stop and realize -- True love never knows why. True love cannot answer Questions of the mind. True love does not search for -- Nor, does it seek to find Answers to the questions That all begin with, "Why?". It lives inside contented hearts.-- True love never knows why.

Thank you, Precious Andrea. You always have the words to lift my spirits. However, your namesake tropical storm is causing a little gloom here in the Tampa area... We don't expect a lot of damage... just a lot of rain... We're OK.... Love ya.... Jake
