爱如清晨的阳光

　　like the morning suns early light,

　　filling my memories and dreams of us

　　with a warm and clear radiance.

　　you have become my love, my life,

　　and together we have shaped our world

　　until it seems now as natural as breathing.

　　but i remember when it wasnt always so -

　　times when peace and happiness seemed more

　　like intruders in my life than

　　the familiar companions they are today;

　　times when we struggled to know each other,

　　but always smoothing out those rough spots

　　until we came to share ourselves completely.

　　we can never rid our lives entirely

　　of sadness and difficult times

　　but we

　　can understand them together, and grow

　　stronger as individuals and as a loving couple.

　　if i dont tell you as often as id like,

　　its because i could never tell you enough -

　　that im grateful for you

　　sharing your life with mine,

　　and that my love for you will live forever.
