Everyday
Sitting with with my pencil ready in hand,
Dave sets the mood with a song from my favorite band.
The paper waits to be stained with lead,
And thoughts gather at the tip of what needs to be said.
To say it once would not suffice,
Nor it be just to write it only twice.
I love you.
I love you.
Actions could show you farther than words I echo,
Still flesh has not enough time for us to borrow.
Day in and day out I hear my friends tell,
The night of love they found and fell.
Thinking aloud I cannot honestly say,
That I've fallen for you one time; one day.
Instead I feel more than others do,
Because I fall in love again everyday spent with you.
