For Michele

I don't know how well you remember
Those months of November, December
When all seemed to fit into place
And we enjoyed a bit of God's grace

I'll remember your brown eyes the best
Thanks to those endless staring contests
Those occasions that we had done right
When there was no trouble in sight

Those are the memories I'll keep
To set in my heart very deep

To me, all we had is not lost
'Cause I'll remember without fear of the cost
To my heart: the undoubtable pain
Of losing you all over again

I haven't stopped caring for you
Or the smiling that crosses my face
When I fall away to remember
Those months of November, December

Now, you may be wondering why
I took these few minutes to write
Of the future, what is there to know ?
I've decided that there I won't go
But at present I have left to say
Have a beautiful and happy birthday !
