Underneath The Candle Glow




I'm sitting here by the fireside,
Listening to the music playing soft and low.
Looking at you, my wife who has such beauty
Reading a book underneath the candle glow.



So fondly I remember the day we met
On a sultry day, walking along the seashore,
There you were, the girl of my dreams
The Angel I had been searching for.



We shared our hopes and dreams
All the time you were stealing my heart.
We just had to build a life together
To laugh,to love and never part.



We have a good life together
We are watching our dreams come true,
We love and share precious moments
Sweet joys just between me and you.



You're not even aware of my presence
Or how my heart is beating so,
As I sit here watching, loving you
As you sit underneath the candle glow.
