He Met His Waterloo<\/p>\n
I have tried to put my arms around to many.
\nI tried to be like my brother, Lenny.
\nHe is a first class playboy, always on a role.
\nBut, never settling down has taken its toll.
\nHe doesn\u2019t love life as much as I do
\nI love life because I have you.
\nWhen I met you I met my Waterloo.
\nThere was no more looking I needed to do.
\nYou and I have been a perfect match.
\nI could never have made a better catch.
\nNow, I spend my whole life through
\njust spending all my time with you.
\nI see rainbows and all the colors.
\nI see little kids with their mothers.
\nI see clouds all white and puffy.
\nI see my sister\u2019s prom dress, all white & fluffy.
\nBut, all the beauty I see reminds me of you.
\nYou are the star attraction in my zoo.
\nYou are the only attraction that is there.
\nThere isn\u2019t room for anyone else, & I don\u2019t care.
\nIf you could read my heart, it would be clear.
\nEvery page would be about you, dear.
\nYou are my all, my everything.
\nWithout you, there is nothing.
\nAll beauty, sound, feeling, and emotion.
\nRolled into one that has all my devotion.
\nThe imagination of the greatest lovers
\ncannot come up with anyone that covers
\nmy every desire and whim better than you.
\nI just pray you feel that way about me too.<\/p>\n
