words never say what I wanted to say
feelings evade being captured in a phrase
so I won’t contrive any clever lines. it feels so fine to be your friend
and I’ll keep on telling you over and over and over again, I love you
you did not speak when you reached into me.
you listened to my song and sang the harmony
laughter and tears, joys and fears keep flowing by… they do not end
and I hear you telling me over and over and over again, I love you
let me say it while it’s here- whether it be one more day or years and years
your love shines through. it’s very clear. I look inside and you are near
so let our souls keep dancing to the music of the heart
our spirits sing together. we will never be apart
and every new day is another chance to say how great it feels to be your friend
I don’t mind telling you over and over and over again, I love you
I love you
c Linda Worster 1979
