I Think of You

The sun shining bright this morning, the skies a brilliant blue,

A fresh cut yard with beautiful flowers, and I think of you,

A plate of meatloaf on the table, with mashed potatoes too,

Biscuits just out of the oven, mouth's watering as I think of you,

From childhood memories through a lifetime, more than just a few,

Forgot more than I remember, more than enough I think of you,

Teaching me to ride my bike, sitting together in a pew,

Learning good things from the Bible, again I think of you,

Remembering that first kiss, all the silly things we used to do,

An old movie or a song on the radio, in that moment I think of you,

Playing ball in the back yard, such a rough and lively crew,

Showing out in our cars, no matter what I think of you,

Standing in front of the preacher, and we both say I do,

That day you were so beautiful,true love I think of you,

Would one child be enough, no we decide we would have two,

Wanting them to have better than we had, oh I think of you,

In my lifetime the good has outweighed the bad, I have no reason to be blue,

To all that I have shared it with, I really do think of you,

Many loved ones and friends have left us, I miss them all it's true,

But many are left here to still love, and I will always think of you.
