I know it's only been minutes
and I know it will only be hours until...
(I must have caught the bug)
but I could not wait for the day to end.
I face the morning; the sun was shining
and what perfect way to start the day--
a giggle, a smile.
you have me wrapped around your little fingers.
Coming home
was something I never looked forward to;
(but then came you) and now I count the hours
until I see your face again.
And the sun has set
the skies turn dark;
I drive in haste
I give in to the chase
And with a giggle and a smile
the stars have aligned;
my day was right;
despite the chaos outside.
Coming home to you
to see you smile at me too
I have never been this happy
never that is, until I had you
