Just One More Day

A once in a lifetime love
As gentle as a dove
Came unexpectedly into my life
Without giving me any strife
He touched my heart strings
As soft as a butterflies wings
We danced through the years
Shedding only a few tears
A journey of colors and shapes
We never wanted to escape
A fairytale fit for a princess
Her prince would have nothing less
We grew old and settled in
Living life from within
Spring’s warm sunny days
Turned to winter’s cold haze
A shock of such sad news
Forever giving me the blues
His pain is finally gone
As I watch the morning dawn
The love I held so dear
And was always oh so near
There will be so much sorrow
And be no more tomorrow
I shall not say goodbye
True love will never die
Every rainbow that I see
Every flower with a bee
All the stars that twinkle
All the rain that sprinkles
As the sun warms the air
And for all that I care
When the moon casts its glow
For all that I know
Till the very end of time
You will always be mine
If I could give anything my love
To watch over you from above
To have every day
Never fade away
I will forever be your mate
And you as always my fate
I only ask the stars above
Just one more day with my love
