Once more I awake from sleep,
My lover sleeping by my side,
Another day I will reap
Filled with loving life and pride.
So many days I have had
In my long and superb life,
Not so many days were bad,
So few were filled with any strife.
Each day brought me something new,
A wonder for me to see,
Maybe nature for me to view,
Or music to set me free.
I look on the life I had
And am so thankful for it,
Looking forward to days to add,
Never ever will I quit.
