Lines To My Lover



You change me for the better,
You see that I can do more,
I can hardly recognize myself,
I don’t know who I am anymore…

But the future looks bright,
I know it deep within,
If I was "living" before,
That life was a mortal sin.

Happiness, joy, that’s what you are to me,
Always and every time,
You complete me, baby,
Now I know that you’re mine.

This is "love", that binding force,
Sometimes together and apart,
We ride the waves, side by side,
from multiple endings to one start.
