Country Living: Give Me Romance Every Time

Maybe a little romance is needed
Lightening our days in all this grey
To place a smile on our faces

You can’t have too much romance
In a life that’s filled with sadness
Making us laugh with pleasure

Give me romance to dazzle me
To make my heart sing out loud
And make me feel I’m alive

Bring on the romance to me
It’s welcome in a soul of tears
Appreciated from this coldness

Give me romantic words and deeds
So pleasing to my eyes and ears
Make me happy for a little while

Give me romance everytime
To make me blush and smile
Instead of all these teasing words

Spend a romantic weekend in the country … wake up to the smells of fresh biscuits just from the oven.  

Have breakfast on the veranda.
