Celebrate the Moment

As I lounge around on an above average warm summer day, I find myself not counting how many apples are in the basket, but how many are free of blemishes. Life is pretty much like apples, you can't get through with a few blemishes. There is no way to rewrite the past and the future comes with its own uncertainty. Therefore I celebrate the moment by loving you.

Fly away butterfly,
tomorrow will come,
the season will pass,
but our our love. 

Memories that never
quite fade are like the
roses in my garden
that bloom each day. 


Fly away butterfly, 
tomorrow will come,
the season will pass,
but not our love. 


Holding tightly, 
I'll never let go, 
for our love is
true and continues
to grow.

Fly away butterfly,
tomorrow will come,
the season will pass,
but not our love.

Your love is in my
heart day after day,
like the dreams of
your kindness that
find their way. 


Fly away butterfly, 
tomorrow will come, 
the season will pass,
but not our love. 


I keep it close as close
as can be , the love that
you give is now a part
of me. 


Fly away butterfly, 
tomorrow will come, 
the season will pass, 
but not our love. 


Your love will remain
for eternity, I knew that
from the start when you
said hello to me. 


Fly away butterfly,
tomorrow will come
the season will pass, 
but not our love. 


We dance on the clouds,
we dream by the stars,
we live and we love
direct from our hearts.

Fly away butterfly,
tomorrow will come,
the season will pass,
but not our love.

I can't make oceans from
rivers green, I can't climb
the mountains unless you
are with me.

You're the light in the dark
of night, the warmth and the
love that holds me on the
 coldest of nights. 


I can't stop time from 
fading away, nor can 
I stop the hair when 
it decides to turn gray. 

You are the friendship
that never grows old,
like a treasure filled
with precious gold.

When I awake in the morning
and gaze at the sky, the blue
gets bluer as the clouds pass
on by.

The sun shines brighter,
no tears in my eyes,
because I am so grateful
for you and I.

When I awake in the morning
and gaze at the sky, the blue
gets bluer as the clouds pass
on by.

I held onto a flotation device,
it was filled with holes and
it didn't stay afloat.

For one minute I gasped for
air, I thought I couldn't live
another day without him
near.

I held onto a flotation device,
it was filled with holes and
it didn't stay afloat.

I started to swim to shore
and on my way, I found
life had more in store.

I held onto a flotation device,
it was filled with holes and
it didn't stay afloat.

It was by chance that you
were passing by, you reached
out your hand and I just
reached back and cried.

I held onto a flotation device,
it was filled with holes and
it didn't stay afloat.

Somethings are a test of life,
and it wasn't till I found your
love that I knew what felt
truly right.

I held onto a flotation device,
it was filled with holes and
it didn't stay afloat.

But you taught me how
to laugh and to smile again,
to reach a little further
and I again began to swim.

I do celebrate the moment,
for all its glory the day
can never be replaced, it is
unique to you and I.

~

I shall dream the dreams of lovers,
I will close my eyes and the moment
we will share.

Your arms will hold me tightly and
our hearts will dance as if one.

I shall dream the dreams of lovers,
I will close my eyes and the moment
we will share.

Your kindness is a blanket from the
darkness and your love the warmth
that comforts so.

I shall dream the dreams of lovers,
I will close my eyes and the moment
we will share.

Each day reveals how our 

love grows deeper.

Test are only for what they want you to know, 

but the heart treads in unknown territory.
