Enough is plenty

I sat in the computer room tonight with a glass of red wine. I had the music ready, a fire blazing, a small box filled with sparkling jewels. The only thing missing was you. You walked through the door, and the last eight years of my life melted into a single moment. I saw you and me, sitting on a dark porch in north chattanooga, you sat behind me, and held me, and I knew thats where I would be forever. In your arms.
I'm writing this tonite, I'll tell you later when we go to bed to read it tomorrow morning. I want you to marry me. Civil union me, whatever we have to call it, I want to spend the rest of my life with you. When I take you out of the picture there is just me, and I am never enough, I will never be enough without you, I never was enough without you. When we danced in the living room tonight with the dogs and the cat running around, I realized that this is my life, and I love it. I love you. You make me feel like I am enough...

They didn't have you where I come from
Never knew the best was yet to come
Life began when I saw your face
And I hear your laugh like a serenade

How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough, is forever enough
How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough
Cause I'm never, never giving you up

I slip in bed when you're asleep
To hold you close and feel your breath on me
Tomorrow there'll be so much to do
So tonight I'll drift in a dream with you

How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough, is forever enough
How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough
Cause I'm never, never giving you up

As you wander through this troubled world
In search of all things beautiful
You can close your eyes when you're miles away
And hear my voice like a serenade

How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough, is forever enough
How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough
Cause I'm never, never giving you up

How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough, is forever enough
How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough
Cause I'm never, never giving you up
Is forever enough
Cause I'm never, never giving you up
