Having met my Skinbob, over the net
i am still meeting now, friends of hers yet
i was introduced to her best friends first
Gail and Laura was no reverse.
They put me at ease,and made me smile
and then after a little while
we went on from there strength to strength
brought me out of my shell, to any lengths
After two years and sussing people out
Skins mate, Laura is with a shadow of doubt
a genuine woman, with family of three girls to call
and her childhood sweetheart,newly wed Paul
All the family off to Cyprus, for a fairytale wedding
but on the day Nika fell ill, hospital bedding
however, the wedding really had to go on
a perfect couple that is second to none.
CONGRATULATIONS PAUL AND LAURA McGUINNESS
(HEALTH,WEALTH AND HAPPINESS)
When death will come to part us
let us be thankful that
God blessed our lives with so much love.
If I go first, pray that my spirit
remembers you always with joy.
Le me dance in heaven when I think of you,
and if I am the one left here alone,
wish happiness for me in all the memories you left,
beauty in every day, friends and family still here.
Let me not mourn, knowing you are with God
and I will come someday to be with you again.
I want you to hear my melody
but i can't write
the right love song for you
I want you to open up your heart to me
but i can't make the words make sweet love to you
my heart is pouring out
my love is also real
I'm hoping now someday
you can believe
that with each and every breath
I am breathing it , finely just for you
now come take me as i am
love me in your timeless bliss
open up your heart to me
and love me as i am
there is no other
and you will be my last
this is our love song
this is our hearts
beating fast
so touch my heart
and lay down your head
I want you to hear my melody
I want you to open up your heart to me
this is the right love song for you and me
aka: lyricvixen
Give me a chance
to wash away your tears;
demolish the fears
of all your past years.
Give me a chance
to heal your broken heart;
repair your wounded soul;
make you believe again.
Give me a chance
to love your hurt away;
replace the doubts and lies,
which could've been your demise.
Give me a chance
to be the other half
of your heart, your spirit, your soul,
me complete you and you the same for me.
Give us a chance
to experience love like no other;
work together to create a life
and be Forever.
Open to suggestion I’ve always been
Single gals were called as I sipped sloe gin
Roses wilting in the heat
Why did they land at MY feet?
Catching the bridal bouquet did me in
The garter was tossed high into the air
A swarm of men scrambled, I eyed the stairs
I said, “Keep an open mind”
The catcher was twenty-five!
Despite my age, he proposed then and there
He slid the garter quite far up my thigh
I didn’t realize; the booze made me high
Sloe gin I’ll ne’er touch again
‘Cause I forgot to say, “When!”
And now I’m still getting calls from this guy
True story – caught the bouquet at my nephew’s wedding. My nephew’s YOUNG friend
caught the garter and proposed while my family broke out into laughter. I later gave it back
to him and told him that although “I’m Open to Suggestion,” I thought he deserved a
younger bride.

I stand alone
Yet among friends
I stand alone
In the sight of family
Hear the music?
Come ahead
Make me turn my head
Come join me
Stand beside me
Stand to my left
Become me
Let me become you
Hear the words?
Go ahead
Make me turn my head
Come join me
We stand together
Before our friends
We stand together
In the sight of family
Hear the music?
Hear the song?
Let’s sing along
Come join me
We stand together
Alone no more
Joined as one
Before our God
I opened my eyes and you were there
I cried for the first time, you still were
I looked up at you as I crawled on the floor
So happy you were, running through the door
I stood up on my feet and followed your footsteps
Innocently smiling, you watched as I made my first steps
We both grew older and started the fights
Still we’d play and laugh on hot summer nights
And on dark freezing winter days,
I’d fall asleep in your warm embrace
A real best friend I’ve found in you
Like a mother’s love; so sweet, so true
How lucky I was, life seemed so fair
Smothered with tremendous love and care
You taught me how love can be unconditional
You showed me such love was real, not fictional
You showed me how in two bodies one soul can dwell
And what it meant to be a sister’s protective shell
Sharing my life with you has been a great pleasure
Our sisterhood will remain my truly greatest treasure
You’ve now become a beautiful bride
And I look at you with indescribable pride
I wish you a lifetime full of love and delight
I wish to always see your smile shining so bright
What can i say about the man that I love?
Is he sweet? Is he caring? Well, he's all of the above.
Right now he's away from me but its no big deal.
He'll be back soon enough and then my wounds will heal.
I'm really sad at this moment but I'll be fine.
He'll be home soon in no time.
He told me to listen to "our song" while he's away
Until he's back that song will always play.
