In My Heart.


  • In my heart I have a picture of you,
  • The picture is old but you are as new.
  • For years I have carried it around with me,
  • Jealously hiding it so that no one should see.
  • The picture changes depending on my mood,
  • If I am hungry for love, you are my food.
  • When I am feeling sad you are my prop,
  • Helping me back on the way to the top.
  • Happy and cheerful I face each day,
  • Your smiling face guides me on my way.
  • Yours is a picture that never dims with age,
  • With you free in my heart not in a cage.
  • You are with me both day and night,
  • Filling my years with strange delight.
  • I have seen many pictures in my long life,
  • But none so beautiful as you my dear wife.
  • Yes in my heart I have a picture of you,
  • The picture is old but you are as new.
