I wrote these lyrics for you, my dear husband. Yes, you were sent to me because I needed you … I still do … and I always will. Happy 32nd Wedding Anniversary from the depths of my heart.
A long time ago
Such long times gone past
Seasons that I knew
So many places
So many faces
And then came you, you
Chorus
Oh! You came to me when I needed you
You came to an empty heart such as mine
Life from the past had left a hole so blue
Your heart was sent to my heart to entwine
All through the summers
Heat which took my breath
Shadows that I knew
Searching for shelter
Dry heart (a)swelter
And then came you, you
All through the autumns
Leaves aglow with change
Sadness that I knew
Coolness of night air
Hard burden to bear
And then came you, you
Chorus
Oh! You came to me when I needed you
You came to an empty heart such as mine
Life from the past had left a hole so blue
Your heart was sent to my heart to entwine
All through the winters
Even without snow
Numbness that I knew
Watching time go by
Hearing my heart’s sigh
And then came you, you
All through the springtimes
New hope (a)calling
Fragrance that I knew
A love harmony
Sudden melody
’Cause along came you
Because I needed you
Needed another beat
Songs of my heart were lost
You came, now I’m complete
You came, now I’m complete
Chorus
Oh! You came to me when I needed you
You came to an empty heart such as mine
Life from the past had left a hole so blue
Your heart was sent to my heart to entwine
