A fireplace romance as we watch the flames dance,

facing each other, at the flames we glance.

Touching each other’s hand in the burning heat,

this is where our wishes and desires meet.

The shadows from the fire fill the room,

through time and space, our spirits zoom.

To a place where the sun is always setting,

as I stand on the seashore, your hand holding.

We slowly and gently move in for a kiss,

as the crackling coals sing of our bliss.

This is the moment that I kiss you,

as my heart jumps, you are my dream come true.

My mind goes blank, as I just sit there,

whatever else is going on, I do not care.

The world could end, as I am in your embrace,

I will be happy knowing, the last thing I see is your face.

Bu the world is not over and our lives have jut begun,

as we move into our future of setting sun’s.

I will kiss your lips forever and a day,

knowing that these feeling, will never go away

A lazy Sunday morning and still in bed,

dreams of you running around my head.

Dreams of all our fun last night,

we were dancing until daylight.

Dancing together as we talked,

holding hands as we walked.

Taking you home, which is where I live,

you are my wife; to you my heart I give.

We have been married for under a year,

and I still dream about holding you near.

I want to keep our love new and strong,

through hell and high water, we will carry on.

Being there for each other as we grow old,

taking you for granted, I will not be so bold.

I will always be at your right hand,

showing you that I love you and understand.

A taste of Heaven, the smell of honey,

being here is worth more then money.

Drifting to a place that exist in your mind,

moving through the wonders you may find.

Watching sunsets that go into the night,

watching the moon go into the light.

Feeling the gentle breeze, as its blows,

watching the flowers as they grow.

Watching the shadows on the ground,

watching the leaves being blown around.

Holding the hand of my wife,

with you, I want to spend the rest of my life.

Watching the snow falls on the hills,

all things give me a thrill.

These things are Heaven to me,

things that I can do endlessly.

Am I asleep and dreaming about you,

or am I awake and all this is true.

Am I in a place where I have always wanted to be?

and are you lying here in bed next to me.

Is this really happening; I really do not know,

but all these feeling of love start to show.

The moon is high in the night sky,

the wind is blowing the clouds by.

Raindrops fall on the windowpane,

down the walls and into the drain.

The night has electricity in the air,

with thunder and lightning everywhere.

It makes the perfect setting for love,

as the raindrops fall from above.

So we drift away into a deep sleep,

and the memories of this night we keep.

Am I dreaming or is this real,

is this lost sadness that I feel?

Is this the moment that I say goodbye?

and spread my wings to try to fly.

I feel that I am trapped in a pit,

it seems that rock bottom I have hit.

I feel like a ship sailing in the middle of the night,

looking for some sign, looking for some light.

Drifting far, drifting all alone,

drifting around the twilight zone.

Seeking an answer to what I need,

but I have little chance to succeed.

But I will put my head down and move on,

my desire for happiness is making me strong.

An old heart that beats for you,

a young love that feels new.

The fluttering of a loving heart,

that feels confused when we apart.

I need to hold you everyday,

in my heart please always stay.

I close my eyes and see your face,

I open my eyes and I am in a good place.

I only know that you are the one,

that makes me forget the bad things I have done.

We have grown old loving each other,

we have never needed another.

I live to love you my darling wife,

I will love you for the rest of my life

As I listen to the cold wind blow,

as the temperature drops, low.

This is a winter morning,

listening to the birds, sing.

Watching the sun, as it rises,

as the sun, lights the night skies.

The moon, takes it leave from the sky,

as the sun, starts to climb high.

The shadows of the night go away,

giving way, to a brand new day.

But as the sunrises, more shadows are forming,

as the sun shines early in the morning.

The shadows get taller, as the sun gets high,

rising to the highest point in the sky.

Sometimes the moon, hang around,

as the sun, is shining down.

These are just some of the things,

that happens, as the day begins.

As I look into the mirror and the face that I see,

it is not the face you see when you look at me.

The images that exist in my mind,

are the images of a world so unkind.

But then I met you and the images changed,

you changed my views, my life you re arranged.

My life was empty and full of loneliness,

but now my life is full of love and happiness.

How you did it, I really do not know,

since I met you, I have a glow.

This is the glow of love,

we fit each other like hand in glove.

I lived all alone in a lonely place,

now every morning, I see your face.

I really do not know, what I did to deserve this,

but you are now the key to my happiness.

So I will walk behind you, wherever you go,

with true love for you, I will always show.

As I sit here looking into the morning sun,

as I think of all the things that have to be done.

I have to wash the car and clean our home,

if not, when you get home, you will moan.

I need to open the windows, so some air can come in,

then after all that, I must go and do some shopping.

I have to prepare a special dinner for you,

a candle lit dinner, just for two.

A little music, so we can dance,

this is how to keep young our romance.

The timing is important, that is true,

to make a little magic, between me and you.

I give you flowers that I brought early in the day,

and a box of chocolates, that I will give away.

The chocolate I gave to the keeper of my heart,

as a symbol that we will never part.

We sit down to eat, what I have made for you,

because the keeper of my heart is you.

After dinner, we start to dance,

this helps build up our romance.

I wash the dishes and you go to bed,

you are tired and have a sore head.

After I washed the dishes, I watch you in bed,

and as you sleep, I rub your head.

At the time, I think about your face,

a love like your, I can never replace.

You are the dream, that I cling to,

in my heart, my love is true.

This world that I live in, now with you,

is where I keep our love new.

The shadows that form, when the sun is low,

fill my heart with joy, I want you to know.

Because that is the time that you come home to me,

and your beauty, once again I will see.

Never will I worry about your love,

we fit perfectly, like a hand in a glove.

My life was lonely, but now is complete,

I was always angry, myself I used to beat.

Then I met you and my world changed,

for the better, my life you rearranged.

From your love, I will never hide,

you have my heart and live inside.

Being human is something that I can not be,

I am an orang-utan and live in a tree.

Walking on two legs is hard for me to do,

I am only trying to imitate you.

I am unable to use a knife and fork,

also unable to open my mouth to talk.

You may build a tree house for me,

I will be happy living in a tree.

You can feed me through the bars on my window,

if you love me, do this, to let me know.

If you only see me as a pet I understand,

after all I am only an old orang-utan.

Birds singing at the start of the day,

as the sunrise is on its way.

The sky turns orange and then turns red,

at this time of morning, you are still in bed.

The flowers turn to face the sun,

as the sun prepares to shine on everyone.

But it is to early t be having fun,

and for people to be enjoying the sun.

The sky changes from dark to light,

some indication that the day will be bright.

Slowly but surely the day become light,

as the wonders of the day, come into sight.

In all this, the birds still sing,

waiting to see what the day will bring.

Breaking the mould, creating the mood,

feeling relaxed in my bedroom.

Making the magic, feeling the swing,

making noise and hearts that sing.

Looking up at the ceiling,

with that magic feeling.

Looking down towards the bottom of the bed,

breathing so hard, thinking you feel nearly dead.

Moments of magic, moments to share,

special moments with someone near.

Someone special to your heart,

but the magic faded when apart.

Moments of dreams that come to life,

feels like walking on the edge of a knife.

Those moments of dread when you part,

longing to live in each other’s heart.

These are the feelings I have for you,

waiting for a dream come true.

Can I hold you when the nights get cold?

I want you to be my wife, if I am so bold.

This is the time to hold you near,

and to make all my

A bit sentimental for me, but not too bad.Bobby Salton is a woman on the run. With her six-year-old daughter she finds refuge in a rambling house on the Connecticut shore and the chance to rebuild their lives. Hired as a live-in companion to Alma Ogilvie, Bobby helps the retired teacher regain her independence. But Bobby's abrupt appearance also has a starling effect, especially on Eva Rule, Alma's niece. Bobby reminds the successful author of a time she'd rather forget. As these three very different women grapple with memories of haunted pasts, they form a tenuous bond, one that is all too soon put to the test. Just as they begin to believe in the future, the past catches up with them in a violent climax that threatens everything they have now come to trust.
