I haven`t been writing much love songs the past few years, but in last few months I have been feeling the inspiration to do so. I showed this to a very good friend of mine, whom I know for a fact is not very emotional, but I also know she likes my music, so that could be correlated, but she said the lyrics made her cry, so I have high hopes for this one, haha!

A little backstory on the song; A few months back, around the same time I started writing love songs again (wow, what coincidence), I met a girl, an absolute fantastic young woman, whom I fell madly in love with, and she fell madly for me as well (hopefully, haha), and we started planning our life together, sharing our dreams and ambitions.. About a house on the country, with a big yard our kids can play in, where our animals can be free and run around, things like that... So this song popped out of my head this morning, and I spent an hour writing it and putting together some melody and chords.. The first verse is from my head, how I picture it to be, the second verse is a true story, and the chorus is straight from the heart..

Ok, let`s jump into the song, shall we?

A Lifetime With You

You look so pretty when you`re walking down the aisle
You`re everything I ever dreamt of having in my life
I tell you my vows, say I do and make you my wife
There`s a tear in your eye, as I kiss you for the first time

And I knew from the moment I laid my eyes on you
That you were my forever, my life would change for the better
With you, only you
There`s no one else, baby you are my muse
Every song that I wrote, I wrote them all for you
Every symphony, they`re playing our harmonies
Only you, oh you
If I could spend a lifetime with you

When you came into my life you brought me a son
I promise for every day I will threat him like he`s my own
I promised you forever, and I will never let go
Every song that I wrote is a piece of my soul

And I knew from the moment I laid my eyes on you
That you were my forever, my life would change for the better
With you, only you
There`s no one else, baby you are my muse
Every song that I wrote, I wrote them all for you
Every symphony, they`re playing our harmonies
Only you, oh you
If I could spend a lifetime with you

You can see through my soul
Take my hand I`ll never let go
Watch our kids as we grow old
Day by day I only love you more

And I knew from the moment I laid my eyes on you
That you were my forever, my life would change for the better
With you, only you
There`s no one else, baby you are my muse
Every song that I wrote, I wrote them all for you
Every symphony, they`re playing our harmonies
Only you, oh you
If I could spend a lifetime with you

Cheers
