Whispering Back

I've known you quite some time now

Though it feels just like yesterday

I remember when you walked into the room

Your smile looked quite like the one I see you're wearing today

I didn't know it at the time

Just where that day would lead

But it did make me write a song

So I could tell you you're the one I need

Now when I hold you close in my arms at night

Your head rests upon my shoulder

I know that life without you

Would be so very much colder

And now every time I sing that song

I hear your voice call right back

Like a whisper it begins

Then builds and echo's fulfilling all the needs I lack

I really don't know what I would do

Without that reassurance you are near

But there is something so supportive

As having you there to whisper in my ear

So with this song I'm whispering back

As life goes on and we get older

You've been there for me throughout the years

Made it possible, yet I'm not sure I've told her

Just the other day you told a story

About that day we met

And all the adventures we've been through

We're so lucky we've got no regret

I've achieved my dreams because of you

And the support that you have shown

As you listened to me throughout the years

Thanks to your advice, boy how I have grown

Together we've made the music

as we held each other through the night

You're head rests still on my shoulder

While I hold you in my arms so tight

I really don't know what I would do

Without that reassurance you are near

But there is something so supportive

As having you there to whisper in my ear

So I wrote another song

Just to remind you, you're the one I need

And I can't wait for all the exciting times

yet to come and where that may lead

And with this song I'm whispering back

As life goes on and we get older

You've been there for me throughout the years

Made it possible, yet I'm not sure I've told her
