Ever Lasting Love

In nineteen-eighty-nine, a little boy came into my world
And following two years on down came my little girl
These two spirits gave to me a gift I'd never known
A gift of ever lasting love

And as they start to grow my world is torn in two
Because of my wrong choices they now mostly live with you
Every night I lie awake praying they will know
My love is ever lasting love

And now some words on love I need to give to you
Always love each other in everything you do
Say your prayers and do what's right let your conscience be your guide
Never allow yourself to do something you'd have to hide

Go to church and read the word sent down from above
And always know that God is here to give to you His love
And as you grow, my children, know I miss you every day
And in my heart is held your love, it can't be taken away

In time you will start dating, remember who you are
Respect yourself and the one your with, never let it go too far
Then when it's time to marry, you will give to your love
The purest of ever lasting loves

And then the day will come you'll have children of your own
Keep them safe and teach them well, only love in your home
Never take them for granted, these gifts sent from above
These gifts of ever lasting love
Such precious gifts of ever lasting love

I love you Parker and Kristi!!!
