chocholets and roses
diamonds and gold
greeting cards with messages
of love that grows

champagne and dinner
served by candlelight
in the finest of restaurants
on a special night

heart shaped pendants
hung from a chain
bracelets and earrings
bought from some place

red velvet boxes
with treasures inside
bought for the thought
with little in mind

ribbons and wrappings
flowers in vases
all of the things
that put smiles on faces

the idea of it all
of what can be bought
the means of the day
so many forgot

just taking the time
out of the day
a glace and a kiss
and the things that you say

holding of hands
a loving embrace
sharing a laugh
no matter the place

making plans without plans
with one mission in mind
just go where you go
and do what feels right

being together
and spending some time
away from it all
even just for a night

forgetting the world
and the distractions of life
remembering why
you are husband and wife

with no where to go
and nothing to do
just taking time
to say i love you...
