You are my cup.

There you are in your white dress
Marching in for all to see

Incarnate joy and purity
Your father looking on with pride
As you come into your place
He’s reveling in this...

Ode to the LadyTo the lady who sees me as I am,
To the lady who sees me as a book,
Turning through my pages,
Straightening its dog ears,
Reading between the lines.
To the lady to whom I stand as a mirror,
Reflecting...

Be Mine Or Nobody'sEvery thought, every vision you will dream

No woman could sing me a happier...

Struck again by her simplicity, her very essence.
