The love of a good woman
. . . Covers a multitude of sins
Could you ever
. . . Love a man like me
I have traveled
. . . A long and lonely road
I am dry and dusty
. . . Worn and weathered
. . . Rough around the edges
I lack in social graces
. . . I don't move in certain circles
I have experienced life
. . . But have little experience in love
I have nothing of value
. . . To offer you
But I love you
. . . And I want to take care of you
So, If you could ever
. . . Love a man like me
I will make everyday
. . . Say I love you
I will fill your nights
. . . With walks in the moonlight
. . . Dancing under the stars
. . . Laughter to warm your
heart
I will invade your sleep
. . . With the sweetest of dreams
. . . The kindest of words
. . . Love songs
. . . And lullabies
I will fill your heart
. . . With a scrapbook of memories
. . . That will keep you warm
. . . When the world is cold
I will make all of your yesterdays
. . . Memories of love, laughter
. . . And a life worth living
I will make all of your today's
. . . An expression of love to
experience anew
And I will make all of your tomorrows
. . . Like dreams waiting to come
true
My sins are many
. . . They have imprisoned me
And, I need your love
. . . To set me free
So, Now I've come
. . . On bended knee
To lay before you
. . . My desperate plea
Could you ever
. . . Love a man like me
(A draft I know needs improvement. Sometimes I need to put it out there, so a can contemplate on it anew)
