I Love You Baby
I will never forget the first time I saw you,
you looked right at me with those eyes of blue;
and I knew at that moment you were the one,
when you said hello I knew- no other would do.
We like to drink coffee in cafes head to head,
you whisper- you are sexy with those lips of red;
later, we snuggle so nice and close on the sofa,
on days like this our love is so deep- but unsaid.
We love to stroll hand in hand around the park,
and on a bench you open your book to a bookmark;
and read to me with your deep, beautiful voice,
oh lovely- then I am distracted by a sweet skylark.
At night, in our bed you stroke my hair so gently,
your ear to my tummy you say- love you baby;
this journey of love has been a delight darling,
with all your sweet nothings and words of beauty.
