for penny
on our 15th wedding
anniversary
ever
since that night
at
cobb's corner
in
1979, when i saw you criss-
crossing
the floor, your perfect ass a-
swing
& a-sway, oh
it
was love
at
first sight, & i've stayed that way
through
all the crazy changes
we
managed to endure, criss-
crossing
in & out
of
each other's lives, splitting up
&
coming back together
so
many times, until we were joined
as
husband & wife at last
on
that bright first day of 1989?
&
15 years later, i still love you
more
every day, & i'll keep on loving you
as
long as i have life
&
if I have to be so far a-
way
from you
on
this lucky day, i?m out here criss-
crossing
the ocean to find
a
place where i can bring you
to
live out our days together, baby,
oh yeah?happily ever after
