A poor man`s promise

when I awoke this morning

you were on my mind

I think about you

all the time

I can' t give you

diamonds or pearls

but I promise

you`ll always be my girl

Exotic places we`ll never see

but by your side I will always be

so take my hand and walk through

this world with me

by your side is where

I always want to be...

Diamonds and travel are nice but the love of a faithful heart is beyond valuable. Lovely write, Ron.

A diamond aint nothing than a hot rock.





Nice, now your mind and you wont be motley.
