The way the misty morning comes,
The way expectant seedlings grow,
The way the yawning day yields to night...
The way a mighty storm cloud drums,
The way exultant rivers flow,
The way o'ershadowed vales yield to light.
And I love the way your otherworldly eyes
Illuminate me, captivate me,
And make me feel brand new.
And I love the way you make me rhapsodize
About a world where you belong to me
And I belong to you.
The way resplendent raindrops fall,
The way azaleas zealous wait,
The way the sun and moon rise and set...
The way majestic eagles call,
The way wild dolphins congregate,
The way the stars their pathways preset...
And I love the way your fascinating eyes
Illuminate me, captivate me,
And make me feel brand new.
And I love the way you make me rhapsodize
About a world where you belong to me
And I belong to you.
And the way you say my name
When fears are threatening me,
And the way you gently tame
The stormy waves in me.
You bring me peace and joy that endures.
I love your love; I'm so glad I'm yours. . .
And I love the way your mesmerizing eyes
Illuminate me, captivate me,
And make me feel brand new.
And I love the way you make me rhapsodize
About a world where you belong to me
And I belong to you.
