just you
and I
we lay here
arm in arm
watching the river go by.
Each season may change
but we'll remain
the same
as lovers
forever
in this eternal claim.
With all of the time in the world
just you
and I
we lay here
arm in arm
watching the river go by.
Your eyes
still contain
that most perfect blue
in which God
created the sky
as if He knew
a smile like yours
lit up
His favorite star
and I am blessed
for loving
who you are.
With all of the time in the world
just you
and I
we lay here
arm in arm
watching the river go by.
Nature is a gift
in this cycle
of life.
We exchanged
our vows
as husband and wife
in this very place
chaperoned
by the heavens above
where you cherish
and obey
the one you love.
With all of the time in the world
just you
and I
we lay here
arm in arm
watching the river go by.
Do you remember
our picnics
by the willow tree
and the next summer
we returned
with a family of three.
When our son grew up
he made the decision
one day
to bury our ashes
in this spot
so we could stay.
With all of the time in the world
just you
and I
we lay here
together
watching the river go by.
