Wish I Knew You When I Was Young

I wish I had known you when I was young
With poems to write and songs to be sung
Walks In the moonlight holding hands
Skinny dipping leaving clothes on the sands

Family to build knowing right from wrong
With memories brimming out keeping  you strong
Love your hint of a dimple when you smile
Your willingness to go that extra mile

The squeeze of your hand meaning all is ok
I am not going anywhere, here to stay
Why did we let the years pass by
Why didn't we say. let's give love a try

Beautiful. Someone is very lucky. This would make an amazing song. I would send this to some of the great female singers. Maybe expand on it. Whatever this one is huge, I might even want to license it from you. A Huge Fav!
