YOUR SHADOW

My Darling, I love you.

You're all that I desire.

Without you I'm nothing.

You set my heart on fire

If ever you leave me

My heart would break in two.

I'll love you forever,

Until my days are through.

Please say you'll forgive me

For any wrong I've done

And let me be your shadow

Until we two are one.

This was written for my sweetheart way back in 1960.

Thanks, Kelly. By the way, I'm the SHE in this pair. Blame my mother for naming me a boys name.
