For a Moment I'm Gonna Be 15..

..and post some song lyrics...
(c) Marc Cohn of course :) Scroll past the lyrics for my commentary. Of course.

Baby I've been searching like everybody else
Can't say nothing different about myself
Sometimes I'm an angel, And sometimes I'm cruel
And when it comes to love I'm just another fool
Yes, I'll climb a mountain, I'm gonna swim the sea
There ain't no act of God girl Could keep you safe from me
My arms are reaching out Out across this canyon
I'm asking you to be my true companion
True companion True companion

So don't you dare and try to walk away
I've got my heart set on our wedding day
I've got this vision of a girl in white
Made my decision that it's you allright
And when I take your hand I'll watch my heart set sail
I'll take my trembling fingers And I'll lift up your veil
Then I'll take you home And with wild abandon
Make love to you just like a true companion
You are my true companion; I got a true companion
True companion

When the years have done irreparable harm
I can see us walking slowly arm in arm
Just like the couple on the corner do
'Cause girl I will always be in love with you
And when I look in your eyes I'll still see that spark
Until the shadows fall Until the room grows dark
Then when I leave this Earth I'll be with the angels standin'
I'll be out there waiting for my true companion
Just for my true companion
True companion True companion

This has got to be one of the sweetest songs I've ever heard. This is how couples should feel about each other.. and this is how they should express it. I'm hung up on this at the moment... some things need to be said in a relationship, and this is one of them (provided that's how you feel, of course).

"There ain't no act of God girl Could keep you safe from me "
Heh. Wow.

Ok, that's enough of that.
