I'm In Love
It seems like I've been in love forever
there's times I feel like I have to have her
I'm in love with so many things I don't know where to begin
OK, I'm in love with her milky white skin
I reach out to touch her hair
I take a deep breath to smell her perfume in the air
I'm in love with her delicious kiss
I'm in love with her sensual bliss
I'm in love with her touch that's just for me
I'm in love with her joyful voice that always sets me free
I'm in love with her soul that's so bright and pure
I'm in love with her smile that brightens my soul for sure
I'm in love with her laugh that always lights up my day
I'm in love with her eyes that leaves me with nothing to say
I'm in love with the way she likes to play
and if I don't want to, she will make me anyway
I'm in love with a look that lets me know when I'm wrong
I'm in love with a feeling that tells me I belong
I'm in love with the way it feels to hold her in my arms
I love being with her and all her beautiful charms
I'm in love with a time when I had promise and hope in my life
I'm in love with a woman that I want to be my wife
I asked her the big question, and her answer was no
she said she wasn't ready, I said I couldn't stay, I had to go
I'm in love with a dream that just faded away
I'm in love with the thoughts that I still have everyday
I'm in love with all the things in my mind that I see
I'll be in love forever with all these memories

EASTER
No matter what Easter means to you
it could be dyeing eggs pink, yellow, or blue
It could be a bunny that brings baskets full of candy and toys
and brings them all over the world to good little girls and boys
Easter could be about being with family as a tradition
just getting everyone together could be your mission
Easter egg hunts with kids and grand kids can surely be fun
the one that finds the most will be the winner when it's all said and done
It could mean a big dinner with family and friends
there could be stuffing, peas, yams, ham, and some big fat hens
It could mean an Easter parade with bonnets that look a little funny
or it could mean an Easter pageant with women that look like a Playboy Bunny
Easter may just be another day, it may not mean anything to you
it may just be another reason for you to get out and barbeque
Easter might just mean the Lilies are in season
or it could mean that the NFL draft is close, if no other reason
Easter means a lot more than all these things
no matter what you believe or what your religion sings
It's about a soul that loved man on earth so much
he gave his life as a gesture of his love and trust
Trust and believe in him as the son of God
when it comes time for you to enter the gates of heaven, you will get the nod
You can believe that this soul is not the son of God 'till the day your dead
but if nothing else you should believe in the man and the words that he said
He did not speak of the damned and he did not speak of hell
he just said to love your neighbor as you love yourself and you will do well
Even if you don't believe this soul is the savior of mankind
to not see the good in his words, you would have to be blind
This soul of peace gave his life for our sins in a violent death
he was beaten and nailed to a cross until he took his last breath
His death and his rising, rather or not you believe it to be true
Easter is a symbol the death of the old and the birth of the new
