I was once told, baby I love you
And I promise for the rest of our lives I’ll never place none but one before you
And I’ve been waiting for someone like you for quite some time
At this point I wished I could look her in the eye
So I could see if the sincerity of voice, matched that in face or if this was just a lie
But I’d never be able to tell
I’d never be able to find out for self because she never really said these words
But yet I was still told baby I love you
And I promise for the rest of our lives I’ll never place none but one before you
I can’t wait to become you wife
To my surprise she spent that very night faithfully getting her point across
And faithfully I’ve spent every night afterwards wondering why
At times I even ask what she could see so great in a person when we’ve rarely met eyes
She replies she’s seen enough through God’s
As those words fall from her lips I’m in shock
There’s nothing I could utter that would displace these words that she’d never say
I’d never hear the words I love you
Never the words there’s none but one before you
Or none of the other things I’ve stated in this piece
But what she did say made me feel complete…
She said marry me now
And I had to ask what made her think we’d work out so well
Her response…
I love you from my soul… a place where only you and God may dwell
