I Will

I Will

by The Beatles

Who knows how long I've loved you

You know I love you still

Will I wait a lonely lifetime

If you want me to I will

For if I ever saw you

I didn't catch your name

But it never really mattered

I will always feel the same

Love you forever, and for ever

Love you with all my heart

Love you whenever we're together

Love you when we'r e apart

And when at last I find you

Your song will fill the air

Sing it loud so I can hear you

Make it easy to be near you

For the things you do endear you

To me ah, you know I will

I will

Nine years ago today, I eargerly answered the minister with a resounding "I Will" when asked to join Andrew Scott in marriage. I couldn't have been happier. Later that evening, he took my hand and we danced to this song above. Two reasons--I love the song as it remains my favorite Beatles tune and because its the shortest song possible (Andrew was dreading dancing in front of others). The perfect combination for us.

Happy anniversary, my love. I look forward to many, many more years with you!
