Oh What I Would Do
I would take you by the hands
and stare into your eyes.
Tell you how I love you
and kiss you by surprise.
Wrap my arms around you
hold you tight and secure.
Rest my head on your chest
listen to a heart so pure.
Place my fingers on your cheek
pressing up face to face.
Notice the beauty deep inside
seeing through your warm embrace
Sinking into your soul
as I melt with every word.
The things I'd whisper in your ear
romanticism you've never heard.
As I wait for that day
When I'll finally get to say.
Oh what I'd do for you
The wonders to pursue.
Lay you on your stomach
and massage off the pain.
Releasing all your anger
as my hands ache in strain.
Hold you in my arms
as the day turns to dark.
Sit in front of the fire
until the very last spark.
Tuck you into bed
and watch you as you sleep.
The more and more I want this
the harder I tend to weep.
And as the morning comes
I make your favorite meal
with only an hour of rest
your smile makes me heal.
As I wait for that day
When I'll finally get to say.
Oh what I'd do for you
The wonders to pursue.
Treat you like no other
as if you're all that matters.
Kiss you oh so gently
when life begins to shatter.
I'll help you to undress
after a long day of work.
Run your bubble bath
and wash your dirty shirt.
Put on some soul music
as you're walking down the stairs.
Pull you close to me
and dance away our fears.
Love you as the years go by
when soft skin turns to wrinkles.
But when I look into your eyes
they still have that twinkle.
As I wait for that day
When I'll finally get to say.
Oh what I'd do for you
The wonders to pursue...
