about

Naive musings on love.

lyrics

When the trees are silhouetted on a baby blue sky
And we're driving through the mountains at about sixty-five
When we're tumbling down the cliffs upon a star-covered coast
That is when I love you the most

When you're turning up the music 'cause we both know all the words
When we venture out so far away, we know we can't be heard
When our love for one another is transparent as a ghost
That is when I love you the most

When we both say what we want to without saying it out loud
When our bodies are illuminated under crying clouds
When the thunder sounds, I keep both feet on the ground
When you're around

When we both outgrow our youthful ways but not outgrow our dreams
When we hike the High Sierra 'til we're bursting at the seams
When we both create our perfect lives but we're too kind to boast
That is when I love you the most

When the little girl who's five years old and looks a lot like you, says
"Daddy, please come over here and look what I can do"
In her father's eyes, I see my father's pride
I can't describe

When we both are old enough to have grandchildren on our knees
Who say, "Grandma, I think I'm in love and it's quite new to me"
I will tell them to "Believe in it if one day you find
You love him the most all the time"
You know, I love you the most all the time
