about

This song was written for my husband for his birthday. After both of us experiencing the loss of divorce, we are so thankful to have found each other. I call him Johny Angel, because it was as if he just “dropped out of heaven” into my life. I can literally tell him ANYTHING and trust that he will keep me safe, protect our love and encourage me. With him I am peaceful and so content. It is an amazing gift to truly belong to another person.

lyrics

Out of the blue, I found you, and I found love
And so it seems you came to me from heaven above
Somehow you knew my soul right from the start
You made it easy to give you all my heart

There are days when I lose my way, things are unclear
You pull me close, I tell you my hopes, I tell you my fears
And when I feel your heart beating next to mine
That’s when I know everything’s gonna be just fine

Oh I’m gonna love you the best that I can
So grateful that you want me just as I am
And in your eyes I can see
That you’ll never leave me
This I know, you are my own

Every night hold me under darkening skies
And when we rise kiss me in the morning light
Seasons will change and we’re gonna age in time
Day by day I just need your hand in mine

Forever, forever, forever, you are my own
