If not for you where would I be today?
Most likely dead or on some distant shore.
Your love does not drift like the ocean waves.
It stays close to my heart, I can\'t ask for more.
Your skin, so soft, like velvet on my tongue.
Your orchid, sublime, responds to every kiss.
To my ears, your heart beats like a song.
If I never met you my life would be amiss.
But now we build the future bold and brave.
There is no fear when I am in your arms.
The booze is gone and I\'m no longer a slave.
My soul is not in a state of alarm.
Your breath is like the wind on a barren land.
I swear to you I\'ll always be your man.
