Oh Maureen
The sweetest soul this gal has ever seen
What I wouldn’t give to be at the beach with you
Playing games and laughing ‘til we cry
Tell me why
When life gets hard, somehow you roll along
Standing in the sunshine, singing your own song
Always with that sparkle in your eye
These memories, I plant them in my heart
Their flowers bloom in me
Giving me the strength to love myself
The way that you love me
These zinnia seeds, I plant them in my yard
Their colors wild and free
Calling to the red cardinal
To stop a while and visit with me
Oh Maureen
You took me in and made me family
What I wouldn’t give to be at the pool with you
Sippin’ lattes ‘neath the poplar tree
Can’t you see
That everything you touch just turns to gold?
And cats walk through the forest in the wind and cold
They know your loving home’s the place to be
These memories, I plant them in my heart
Their flowers bloom in me
Giving me the strength to love myself
The way that you love me
These zinnia seeds, I plant them in my yard
Their colors wild and free
Calling to the red cardinal
To stop a while and visit with me
Oh Maureen
The kindest soul this gal has ever seen
What I wouldn’t give for another lifetime with you
So won’t you come and find me if you can?
Take my hand
Just look around at all these lives you’ve touched
The beauty of your spirit lives in all of us
It glows like summer sunshine on the sand
These memories, I plant them in my heart
Their flowers bloom in me
Giving me the strength to love myself
The way that you love me
These zinnia seeds, I plant them in my yard
Their colors wild and free
Calling to the red cardinal
To stop a while and visit with me

This Love Is Meant To Be

The beautiful girl who was friends with Marie
You were with us all the time
Everyone loved you, so kind and so sweet
Didn't think you could be mine
Then you gave me a ride, I wanted to stay
I found the strength to ask you out that day
Even the dogs that your dad let loose
Couldn't keep me away
Now I hug you every morning
And again when night comes by
And when I look over and see your pretty face Sleeping by my side
Then I feel how much I love you
How you mean the world to me
I can't imagine my life without you
This love was meant to be
Fifty-one years and we've been through it all
And you're still here by my side
Growing a family and making a home
Well you know it's been a ride
Heart attacks, and cancer too
Hand in hand, we walked each other through
Beachy vacations were so much fun
But the best adventure is you
I will hug you every morning
And again when night comes by
And when I look over and see your pretty face Sleeping by my side
Then I'll feel how much I love you
How you mean the world to me
I can't imagine my life without you
This love is meant to be.

I was on crutches when we met
Not the sexiest I’ve ever felt
But there was something ‘bout your sweet, sweet smile
That made my heart melt
You went and baked my favorite pie
Strawberry rhubarb, it’s so fine
I knew deep down in my soul
I had to make you mine
I knew that I wanted to be with you every day for the rest of my life
Ooh, babe, we’ll
Have chickens in the backyard
And a pool that’s full of good friends
Children running outside
And good cooking in the kitchen
Living the life we deserve
Feeling the gaze of Ed and Jane
Smiling on us from above
They’d be so proud of what we made
A house full of pride
A home full of love
Things weren’t always easy in your life
But you never closed your heart
Now you’re flying high the rainbow flag
Not afraid to be who you are
My Cricket, my partner, my everything
When I’m revving high, you calm me down
Just one look and your kind eyes
Bring me home without a sound
Now I’m asking you to be with me every day for the rest of your life
Ooh, babe, we’ll
Have chickens in the backyard
And a pool that’s full of good friends
Children running outside
And good cooking in the kitchen
Living the life we deserve
Feeling the gaze of Ed and Jane
Smiling on us from above
They’d be so proud of what we made
A house full of pride
A home full of love
Ooh, babe, we’ll
Have chickens in the backyard
And a pool that’s full of good friends
Children running outside
And good cooking in the kitchen
Living the life we deserve
Feeling the gaze of Ed and Jane
Smiling on us from above
They’d be so proud of what we made
A house full of pride
A home full of love

That Kiss
04:01

We met like people often do
But there was something else about you
So I strolled around the corner
We talked and told our stories true
With your Baily boy beside you
But it was when we said goodbye…
That kiss, that kiss!
One kiss and then
I knew without a doubt
That you were meant for me
And that face, those lips
The beauty of the moment
Called me back
To the man I longed to be
Next day I didn’t have a care
My friends said I was walking on air
Everybody knew you, and loved you
You stopped by the café for a while
I couldn’t help but smile
‘Cause the only thought in my mind…
Was that kiss, that kiss!
One kiss and then
I knew without a doubt
That you were meant for me
And that face, those lips
The beauty of the moment
Called me back
To the man I longed to be
The years went by
A loyal dog, a house
We built a life
Had a wedding surprise
Your wit and humor make me smile
You ground me when I’m wild
Your blue eyes twinkle by the fire
And I am home, here in your arms
And this kiss, this kiss!
One kiss and still
I know without a doubt
That you are meant for me
And this face, these lips
The beauty of this moment
Makes me whole
I’m the man I want to be

Allie, We Wanted You
03:43

We wanted you
Through 8 years of testing
Through 9 months of waiting
We wanted you
Though the docs said you wouldn’t do all the things
Other kids do
But you could smile and laugh and throw kisses
And we laughed when your lips were like fishes
You loved cuddling up with Daddy
Flying over the bumps with Andy
You loved to splash in the bubbles with Mommy
Loved Aunt Tresie and Gramma and Tobi
You loved music and dance and ice cream
You were always part of the dream
A part of the dream
We wanted you
Though the schools said you couldn’t be with other kids
But they couldn’t see
That we wanted you
Through the surgeries and heartache, the illness
And your blindness
But you could smile and laugh and throw kisses
And we laughed when your lips were like fishes
You loved cuddling up with Daddy
Flying over the bumps with Andy
You loved to splash in the bubbles with Mommy
Loved Aunt Tresie and Gramma and Tobi
You loved music and dance and ice cream
You were always part of the dream
A part of the dream
And when you had to leave
After 32 years, we made sure you knew
Through all the tears
That we loved you
We loved you and wanted you
Just the way you were
‘Cause you could smile and laugh and throw kisses
And we laughed when your lips were like fishes
You loved cuddling up with Daddy
Flying over the bumps with Andy
You loved to splash in the bubbles with Mommy
Loved Aunt Tresie and Gramma and Tobi
You loved music and dance and ice cream
You were always part of the dream
A part of the dream

I can’t believe no one has ever written songs of love in adoration of my dear Alexis
Life is a breeze with you
I gotta right this wrong right here and now and tell you how my life is wow amazing with my hot Cole
Gliding our whole lives through
You had a tank but still you didn’t have a whale, dear
They’re hard to find especially with broken scuba gear
I’m here to say that I’m the whale who’s looked his whole life for you
And whether we are in Korea in a tiny room or kissing deep inside a patch of bamboo
Life is a breeze with you
I never know if I will find you standing in your birthday suit or maybe brandishing a chainsaw
Gliding our whole lives through
You’re strong and beautiful and kind and full of magic
That all your clueless boyfriends couldn’t see is tragic
You make the world a better place for all, you use all the gears
It’s easy to be me with you!
I love who you are and who I am when I’m with you.
You are my world, my angel and you are my miracle too.
I love you so much I won’t use a cage to make you my own.
It’s easy to be free with you!
