You just said three wonderful words to me,

I cannot begin to think, or to say.

My heart swells, grows in its enormity

From feelings you have given me on this day.

With those three simple words your eyes shine, lit,

Your voice warms me, and lights my whole being.

All for the sake of those three words, that's it.

I feel so free, all that I am saying

Almost, as if they had never been heard.

Not something I had actually planned,

All for the sake of such a simple word.

To be set free, newborn, a brand new man.

You told me of your love for me, it's true.

I said it first, something I had to do!
