A Starry night...and an engagement...


I thought it was just another get-away
I thought it was just another instant thrill
I thought it was just another fabulous weekend
I thought it was just another fourth of July

So I didn't see it coming
So I didn't even prepare
and I wore my raggedy jeans
and my black rubber slippers...

And you popped the question
And I said "Yes"
And fireworks exploded later that night...

I pray to be all that God created me to be, for you...forever...
