The importance of you

At times I sit back and wonder at this love we share
The way you care about me in your Orchid Lady fashion
Sometimes you love me in a slightly different way but you care
And when I need a loving companion I know that you are there.

If I am not feeling well, you worry and you're always here beside me
Should my eyes be closed I sense your psyche close beside me urging me on
Darling if it wasn't for the way you give me as much as you are able
There is a feeling inside me - a something - warning I would always be alone.

The happiest day of my life was the day I met and fell in love with you
I saw this lovely, vibrant woman with blonde hair and the greenest of eyes
You were so smart and elegant I felt you would never give me a second glance
Then you held my hand and I knew you were an angel alighted from the skies.

Those hands of mine you touched felt an awesome surge of your warmth
As I looked into your wide and clear open eyes I knew then you loved me
Asking for nothing more than my love to be returned to you and you alone
You held me close sending waves of excitement into me like waves over sand.

From those times now long gone our love remains as true today as then
Through all those sacrifices we had to make along the way, you stood true
In hard times you never lied to me but unknown made sacrifices of your own
Sweetheart never would I ever hope to find someone like you to love again.

Orchid Lady, I love you in a way no author could ever scribe onto a page
I would sacrifice my life for you should ever that time be required from me
You see I know for what you have given me I could never hope to repay you
Somehow deep down I know when God sent you to me.......
he knew you were my dream.
