If I was a flower growing wild and free

All I'd want is you to be my sweet honey bee.






And if I was a tree growing tall and green
All I'd want is you to shade me and be my leaves

If I was a flower growing wild and free
All I'd want is you to be my sweet honey bee.
And if I was a tree growing tall and green
All I'd want is you to shade me and be my leaves

All I want is you, will you be my bride
Take me by the hand and stand by my side
All I want is you, will you stay with me?
Hold me in your arms and sway me like the sea.

If you were a river in the mountains tall,
The rumble of your water would be my call.
If you were the winter, I know I'd be the snow
Just as long as you were with me, when the cold winds blow.

All I want is you, will you be my bride
Take me by the hand and stand by my side
All I want is you, will you stay with me?
Hold me in your arms and sway me like the sea.

If you were a wink, I'd be a nod
If you were a seed, well I'd be a pod.
If you were the floor, I'd wanna be the rug
And if you were a kiss, I know I'd be a hug

All I want is you, will you be my bride
Take me by the hand and stand by my side
All I want is you, will you stay with me?
Hold me in your arms and sway me like the sea.

If you were the wood, I'd be the fire.
If you were the love, I'd be the desire.
If you were a castle, I'd be your moat,
And if you were an ocean, I'd learn to float.

All I want is you, will you be my bride
Take me by the hand and stand by my side
All I want is you, will you stay with me?
Hold me in your arms and sway me like the sea.



We recently watched the movie Juno which features this song during the opening credits. We both really enjoyed the song and the lyrics so we thought we'd share them here. It has been about a month since our last post but in all honesty there hasn't been much news fit to print. Some beach photos might be featured soon. Otherwise, we are enjoying some cool, spring weather and much longer evenings outside. We are also looking forward to a few days off during Thomas's spring break which will hopefully provide some new blog material.

Autumn

It is hard to believe autumn has finally arrived here mid-November. The air has a refreshing crispness to it and the days are certainly shorter.

Although we miss all the seasonal beauty of the Midwest, here are a few fall photos from right near our own front door. Pumpkins on the doorstep, a wreath on the door, and some leaves turning yellow.

Remember:
Everyone must take time to sit and watch the leaves turn.
-Elizabeth Lawrence

Lone Oak

The tree is more than first a seed, then a stem, then a living trunk, and then dead timber. The tree is a slow, enduring force straining to win the sky.

~Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Wisdom of the Sands, translated from French by Stuart Gilbert
