For Jennifer - A Song

So the other night I ended up writing a dopy love song for my wife.

Huh?  How the heck did that happen?

Still need to work out the chords:

For Jennifer

Lyrics Mark E. Horning 10/19/2014

Music: Mark E. Horning...

Come my friend, and let me take your hand,

And walk together cross the burning sand.

Watch the stars come out above us like a giant milky flag unfurled

Someone to share the joy and wonder in your life

And to hold you close against the woe and strife

And we're standing both together you and me against the whole damn world.

    'Casue I love you more - than ever before

    And each new day just a little bit more

    Best friends forever no matter what the world may have in store.

So take my hand and tell me 'bout your day

I know that there's obstacles along the way

But together we can meet them, and together savor victory.

Cause a burden's lessened every time it's shared

And a joy is multiplied or even squared.

You're the best partner I could have in all of time and history

    And I love you more now - than ever before

    And each new day just a little bit more

    You're my best friend forever no matter what the world might have in store.

And I know sometimes you feel alone and lost

But nothing cheap is ever worth the cost,

And I know it takes an effort and sometimes we have to work real hard

And sometimes life simply gets in the way

But working together we'll rise above the fray

And I trust you and I love you and I hold you in such high regard.

    Yes I love you more now - than ever before

    And each new day just that much more

    You're my best friend forever no matter what the world might have in store.

Walking along, enjoying the view

Everything's easier when I'm with you

Together forever just the way that it was meant to be.

And oh so very grateful that you chose to live a life with me.

So come my friend and let me take your hand...
