My Baby ask for the Good Stuff

Young Love Relationships

Its early on a friday night

We just go started on a new week end

When we just got started for loving

Way back when we had no responsibilities

My name is Jim my gal was Sue

We had plans for love for the long run

She was my romance at a very early age

Some said we couldn't make it but we did

My Baby ask for the good stuff

That first good Kiss

On a second date

Memories like these stay there for years

LIke the first time we hold hands

On a stroll throughout the City

We don't want to be lonely any more

Just a joint near where the kids can grow up

Like it used to be for us

A place for two

Me and you

Some little kids too

My baby ask for the good stuff

I told her from the start

When she gave me her heart

That was the beginning of the Good Stuff

Our First born child

The memories we share

How we got there

For where we started is the Good Stuff

Then many years down the line

When 25 or 50 married years go by

Then we talk about the good old days

What made the Good Stuff Good

I awaken each morning to your sweet voice

Next to me made me the man I always wanted to be

The family grows and the Grand Kids are coming around

With each grand child we are more proud

Of how a family grows from every seed 

In the beginning it was only you and me

Then baby made three

She was our beauty you can see

her resemblance of you and me

Your mother was so proud

When we had our second child

Another daughter as beautiful as the first

now we have two grand Children of our own

and were proud knowing the third on is in the oven

Awaiting a grand entrance 

with open arms we accept this challenge 

God is good Life is good

I remember the first time I said

I love you

and you slammed the door in my face

This made me wonder what I said wrong

I thought I should of got a better response

To my address of love

Made me think she wasn't expecting it just yet

I only waited six days to tell her I love her

and the world was created in that amount of time

So Lets the world spread a little love around

I fell in love for the first time

and that was enough for me

I held on for life

Married the woman I looked in the eyes

and I said I love you for life

Will you be my wife

even those we were to young to understand

The true struggles of love

we went about our business

Like everything was meant to be

You loving me

As I love you 

with all my heart

But things didn't work out

For us we didn't plan to go bust

but our children love us so

and they let everybody know

our parents had the good stuff

and though the world of each other

 when they held each other

way back when.

Aww, full of love Smitty.
Will you be my wife?
Those words just melt the heart.

Love is a tricky business, and takes more than we realize going in. This is an honest piece that makes me think with gratitude of my parents and their 50 years together... Nicely done Jim.

Very hopeful write. Yes long lives together are still possible. My parents hit 62 years before I lost them. I hit 32 years before I lost my husband...love with the right person can be for life. Valentine
