The swing set's swinging.
The songbirds are singing.
I can't help remember but when we sat there together
With your legs rocking back and forth and toes scrunching up.
My hand in your hand as you looked up and said
"Baby, I love you like no one loves anything.
Take me forever. Just take me forever. We'll be together.
As long as I'm yours I promise it'll all be alright."
I said "Sweetie don't worry. I'm already yours. Nothing can come between us."
With the songbirds still singing, I started dancing.
You couldn't help but smile at me.
The laughter and joy brought us together.
The love for each other kept us forever.
I walked you home even though the weather was unsure of what it might be.
When we arrived at your house.
You asked me to come in.
I was so nervous.
I tried keeping my distance.
I had trembling fingers when you moved up to kiss me.
I think for a second it killed me.
I gave you a flower completely in bloom.
You started dancing.
You didn't stop until you were tired.
I couldn't help but smile.
We laid on your bed.
We both feel asleep together.
The sunlight played readily across your face
With the swing set swinging and the songbirds still singing.
