you know who you are

You know who you are

You who quietly caught my eye
You who caused me to smile
You who came over to sit by the side
And stayed for more than awhile.
You who met me the very next day 'cos like me
You just couldn't wait
Now here we are--a lifetime of loving away
My friend, companion, soul-mate

Now if this I've never let you know
It's not because I never wanted to
I just assumed you've always known
Because you take my love for granted too
But it's been so long
And it's been so good
And we've come so very very far
So this little song says that words that I should have to you
And you
You know who you are

You who brightened up my darkest days
You who taught me to share
You with the patience that changed my bad ways
And showed me how much you cared
You who opened a door in my heart
To allow the light of love in
So much so in spite of our time spent apart
I still feel like love's just beginning

And now I want to let know
You've given me as reason to go on
But if I should be the first to go
You have to promise me you'll carry on
'Cos it's been so long
And it's been so good and we've come very very far
Let this little song say the words that I should have to you
Sweet you…
You know who you are.
