I wrote this song back in the early 2000s as a song for my lovely wife, Kim. It was, as many of my songs, also a song about God, and you should be able to hear it in the lyrics. But the heart of the song is my love for Kim. We’ve been married for 25 years, since August 1989 and through it all I remain amazed, and blessed, that she is still with me. And today, when I look into her eyes, I still know that my hopes and dreams are coming true with her.

 

When I wake up today, I feel you close to me.

I close my eyes, see your face, breath a prayer, you stayed with me

 

Then I know what it feels like to have everything

And I know, it’ll be okay, cause you’re here.

The night was very long, but that’s okay, you’re here with me.

And if I don’t feel very strong; if I cry, will you hold me?

You’re the answer to my life, all the questions and the dreams,

find fulfillment in your eyes, those eyes, that love me.

 

I hope you enjoy it.
