You and I, an unmatched pair
|
Took the time to touch, to share
|
Worlds apart the night we met
|
We braved the odds and won the bet
|
|
Not perfect yet
|
But close enough for love
|
|
How old-fashioned, pure romance
|
Shared a kiss, we shared a dance
|
Shared the body and bouquet
|
We'll taste the wine another day
|
|
When you and I
|
Are close enough for love
|
|
Not just lovers, more than friends
|
Who knows where one starts and one ends
|
Tracing lights through sleepless nights
|
That I'll remember always, always
|
|
Long goodbyes and tearful looks
|
Hold up well in poems and in books
|
But you and I have life to hold
|
The greatest story never told
|
|
Not perfect yet
|
But close enough for love
|
|

Close Enough For Love
