Texas Woman Poem by david lessard

Texas woman - your forever on my mind -
you came in so quiet-like, as in a dream,
you liked Robert Frost and so did I,
I liked you right away, can't say just why...

Texas lady - your a sight for these old eyes,
Your like a breath of clean, fresh wind,
You liked my music, whatever I did play,
I felt your closeness, in more than just an
ordinary way...

Texas lady, let's be together, you and I,
let's spend the days we have and seal
our love -
Let's share the life, we never had before,
and open up, a brand new door.

A door that leads, to harmony and peace,
a door through which our dreams will never cease-

Texas woman - I'll be your man,
Though I'm a Yankee, through and through,
Vermont and Texas, they'll go well together,
Self-reliant, independent, it is true.

What better values for our future?
What better virtues can we share?
We'll love each other, that's for always,
For one another, we'll be there.

Texas woman, your my lady,
let me share your life -
Texas lady, your my woman,
say that you will be my wife.

I'm from Vermont- made out of granite,
straight out of those New England hills,
I like things plain and simple,
Nothing fancy, no fuss, no frills.

Texas woman, say you love me,
Hold me fast, all through the night;
and when the dawn of day comes breaking,
Hold me closer, in the light.
