Sitting in the top of a tree
Swaying back and forth in the breeze
Enjoying this God given life
Not to mention this great ride.
From my lofty perch
High above God's green earth
I have a birdseye view
Looking down on the miracle that is you.
From here, just a speck
Looking up at me wondering,
"What the heck"
Then this urge to hold you
Washes over me,
And I make quick work of
Coming down that tree.
With feet planted firmly on the earth
You asked why all the mirth?
It is you my love that makes me feel so young
So much so, I remember when climbing trees was fun.
Remember sneaking into the drive-in
When we could afford only one?
Your love takes me back to when
We considered that fun.
Recapturing my youth each time I see you
Makes me giddy, you too?
Your kiss is like a fine wine
That intoxicates this heart of mine.
It makes me want to break out in song,
As long as there is you, I will be forever young.
