Analysis of I’m to my life
Tim Halliday 1968 (Wakefield West Yorkshire England)
I remember the day you came into my life
With your tussled blond hair your presence stripped me bare
My heart started racing beating hard like a drum
My knees going weak could it mean I’m in love
Your smile shining brightly like a star in the sky
Your lips moving gently like a swan floating by
When God made things of beauty you were first on the list
Graceful endearing truly a moment of bliss
As time went by I was caught in a trap of passion
With lustful thoughts breaking through all the gaps
As the end came near to me my heart lost its beat
The skies went dark the moon obsolete
Misery abound I retreat lonely & scared
illness consumes me I’m lost cannot breathe
The days are all grey now a cocoon holds me tight
But I will never forget when you came into my life
