You are my Lovely Wife,
Our children's loving mother
But before they came along
You were my beautiful lover
I'm not saying anything new -
Back then we were younger
We often held each other close
Because we had the hunger
Our love was like the first time
On a roller coaster
Where the rush of it urges you
To ride it over and over
We relished our love
And reveled in our youth
Holding each other then
Was the ultimate truth
Do you remember when
You trembled at my soft caress
When my lips on your neck
Brought forth your gentle yes
Do you remember those
Long playful days
When you used to beg me
To please, please stay
The ride is still a lot of fun but
With a gentle swing and sway
Not the roller coaster of before
But a ship anchored in a bay
And when we hold each other
We aren't looking for truth
Comfortable in each other's arms,
We don't long for youth
Now holding each other close
Doesn't have to mean passion
It's just a way of communicating
For two who have become one
And though our children have
Truly made of you a mother
To me you will always be
First and foremost a beautiful lover
And will always remember how
You trembled at my soft caress
How my lips on your neck
Brought forth your gentle yes
And will never forget
Those long playful days
When you used to beg me
To please, please stay
