Forever Song

romantic nonsense issues forth

[Verse]

            Now comes the time

            In our hearts we’ve waited for

            From the lonely darkness

            A gentle hand reaches forth

            And asks you to dance

            So shall we dance to

 

 

[Chorus]

            This song that’s called forever

            That now plays for you and I

            Hearts linked like our hands

            Never to let apart

            Keep this love of mine as yours

            It’s meant for no other in the world

            Don’t let go and never forget

            This forever song

 

 

[Verse]

            Kindling this small fire

            Of our quietly shared passion

            We both know that we will glow

            For as long as the distant stars

            So let us sing together

            In heart felt harmony

 

 

[Chorus]

            This song that’s called forever

            That now plays for you and I

            Hearts linked like our hands

            Never to let apart

            Keep this love of mine as yours

            It’s meant for no other in the world

            Don’t let go and never forget

            This forever song

 

 

[Bridge]          (piano solo)

 

[Chorus]

            This song that’s called forever

            That now plays for you and I

            Hearts linked like our hands

            Never to let apart

            Keep this love of mine as yours

            It’s meant for no other in the world

            Don’t let go and never forget

            This forever song

 

 

            And never forget

            Our forever song.

Author's Note

Dedicated to those who are married, and if there is a future Mrs. Stussy, for her as well.

What a beautiful poem.. so wonderful to read about forever love.

But, you know, this really could be the lyrics of a love song - maybe you could find someone to record it; it needs music to sway to while gazing into your darling's eyes.

It truly deserves its first place in the contest. Congratulations!

Congrats on your winning poem (song) Well written.

[Beatrice Boyle (Grandm..]

What a lovely lilting lyric this is...would love to hear the melody.

It is refreshing to read something dedicated to married folks....too often it is about teen age angst, love gone wrong, or overworked, cliched, odes to the moon!!

This is real...this motivated...this is choice!

Thank you my friend for spotlighting us married (or widowed) folks. And I too hope for a future with the future Mrs. Stussy. (After reading this paeon to love...she will melt in your arms!)

Good Job!

I love this! Wow. I am sure that when the future Ms. Stussy hears this, she will just melt!
Just beautiful all around!

Wow....
Song writing treats you well my friend!
this is a heartbreaker, so....ehh, words fail..tender and permeating...
Like a slow song playing somewhere in the dark, this rises like velvet,
carressing the eyes and enlightening the senses.
Truly beautiul, wonderful write. :D

What a beautiful song!! Have you recorded it yet? as soon you do send it to me.
I loved it, thought it was great. Whoever the future Mrs. Stussy may be she'll be greatly flattered by this song.
