Across the Miles

Your love is always with me

And comforts me each day

It even brings this heart a smile

Six thousand miles away

But I could make an endless list

Of all the things I miss

That special way you look at me

The magic when we kiss

The sound of your sweet laughter

Your sweet voice when we talk

The way you slip your hand in mine

No matter where we walk

That smile that lights up any room

And always warms my heart

Your constant loving kindness

You showed me from the start

Fascinating conversations

The kind we've always shared

The way you always lift me up

The way you've always cared

But even though I miss you

So much when you're gone away

This heart is never empty

And our love is here to stay

And we will stand together

As one. through thick and thin

And know, as long as this heart beats

I love you Norma Lynn

Home

They say home is where the heart is

But my heart’s down on the coast

Inside a brown-eyed woman

That’s given me the most

I feel lost when I’m without her

But her touch can make me whole

Her smile can chase the clouds away

Her love can heal my soul

The one that I had searched for

That Angel in my mind

The one who brings a special love

That few can ever find

So, I’m looking at this highway

And dreaming of the day

When my home is there beside you

Not two hundred miles away

My Pledge

Remember what I said

The day I pledged this heart to you

In good times and on cloudy days

My love would still be true

Sometimes you find a strength in me

That helps when times are tough

That strength comes from the love you give

I hope it is enough

When you seek comfort in my arms

I hope it soothes your soul

For every time I've needed you

Your love has made me whole

For all the joy you bring to me

And all the love you give

Please know that you can count on me

As long as we both live

Let me be the one you turn to

When the clouds obscure your sun

When you need someone to lean on

Let me always be the one

Although I live to see your smile

I'll be here for the tears

To hold you and to comfort you

For our remaining years
