Pop / Progressive Country

A few years back I was diagnosed with advanced, aggressive cancer. I wrote this for my beautiful wife who loved me and cared for me when I could not care for myself. I will love her forever…and then some.

Lyrics

Verse 1
From the moment I first met you
I knew you were the one
And if we live to be a hundred
I’ll still feel like we’ve just begun
I’m not sure that I could measure
All the laughter love and fun
But if I could, you know I would….and then some

Verse 2
All the water in the ocean
Every grain of sand beneath
Not sure if it can be counted
But it’s more than you’ve ever seen
If you could count the stars at midnight
Just when you think you’re finally done
Well that’s how much I love you…. and then some

Chorus:
There’s no way that I could count
All the things I love about you
And I know without a doubt
I could ever live without you
So no matter how you measure love
My dear just add it up
There will always be enough for you….and then some

Tag:
If I could write the greatest love song
That ever has been sung
I’d sing it in your ear, forever dear, and then some
