On Top of the World

Love, is it not grand! I wrote this in December 2018. It speaks to a lifelong relationship between two people, based on a deep and everlasting love. May it be so.


Refrain

Today I woke and your hand was in mine
I caressed your cheek and you did smile
You touched my chest with a gentle pat
Our eyes did open and there was love.

Verses

We met long ago; do you remember?
We were kids when it came to life
Life was simple as we had it all
You and me, on top of the world.

We made the choice to be together
To create a life like no one else before
Life was good as we had it all
You and me, on top of the world.

We created life and grew our family
We lived and learned as if no tomorrow
Life got better as we had it all
You and me, on top of the world.

We travelled life’s hills and even valleys
Facing everything arm in arm
Life’s been great as we had it all
You and me, on top of the world.

We slowed it down but enjoyed the music
‘til that day you went to heaven above
Life is different but you’re still with me
You and me, on top of the world.
