You

If I was adrift in the ocean
Or shipwrecked on unchartered land
I'd be content for the rest of my life
If you were there holding my hand

I know you are lonesome without me
Why did you leave me so alone and blue
You belong with me, no doubt about it
I'm happiest when I'm with you

If I could have just one wish granted
And know that wish would come true
I know exactly what I'd wish for
I'd spend the rest of my life loving you

When all those around you forsake you
And leave you alone feeling blue
Close your eyes and whisper my name
And I'll be there holding you

So beautiful and romantic. It begins and ends with You. This is the way it should always be, when in Love. While a heart holds that sweet ache. Your thoughts caress gently around me. Congratulations Kevin, on this win. :) Brandy
