Ballad for my wife

I saw her standin’ full of emotion, Hair like sunshine, eyes like the ocean. Every heart turned when she walked by, A touch of heaven, too high to try. Oh, she was a dream, I was just a man, Reachin’ for stars I could never span. But love don’t heed what the world decrees, Now that angel’s here on her knees—with me. I spun my words like a fool’s poor rhyme, She just laughed and said, "Take your time." One slow chat led to two, then three, And somehow her heart made room for me. Oh, she was a dream, I was just a man, Reachin’ for stars I could never span. But love don’t heed what the world decrees, Now that angel’s here on her knees—with me. They said I’d falter, said I’d fall, That a love like ours couldn’t last at all. But her hand in mine proved them wrong, Turns out I was her king all along. Now she’s my dream, I’m her chosen man, Holdin’ the stars in the palm of my hand. For love don’t heed what the world decrees, Now my queen wears my ring—and believes. So if you see her, don’t ask how, Just smile and nod as she takes my bow. The girl too bright for my humble view? She’s my wife now—and my whole world too
