The Circle of Life
So starts the Circle of life
Which begins with husband and wife
The love for each other grows from the heart
Do you remember when it did start?
A glimpse of him across the room
Those butterflies, did you feel them?
Then the brush of his hand across yours
What did he say or recommend?
He finally asked you out
…of course you said yes
And then he came and picked you up
You remember every detail I bet!
Then later you both were wed
And little ones started to come
But you made a wise choice
For he is still your only one
They all grew up in front of you
In awe you seemed to smile
About those things they do
That make your life worth while
