 gfl II Love Qtory Where do I begin to tell the story of how great a love can be, the sweet love story that Is older than the sea, the simple truth about the love she gave to me, where do I start? With her first hello she gave a meaning to this empty world of mine she came into my life and made the living fine, she fills my heart. She fills my heart, with very special tilings, with angel's songs with wild imaginings, that everywhere 1 go, I'm never lonely, with her along who could be lonely? I reach for her hand, it's always there. How long does it last can love be measured by the hours in the day? 1 have no answers but this much I can say, 1 know I'll need her until the stars all burn away, and she'll be there. 26 m 11 h r ij
