Story Behind The Song
this song is longer than a single release because it was a gift to my husband. However, it can easily be shorten by removing the chorus the second time and removing the instrumental "dance" guitar at the end.
I wrote this song as a gift to my husband for our 30th wedding anniversary. Many of the lyrics have specific meanings to our relationship over the years. For instance....the opening line refers to when I first met him. He was walking up the aisle, as an usher, at his sister's wedding to walk me to my seat. He took my hand and escorted me down the aisle. Three and 1/2 years later we were married!

Verse 1:
The first time I laid my eyes on you
You looked like a dream come true
No one had ever made me feel that way before.
Then as you took my hand
I knew I had found the man
To be my partner, my lover and
My friend.
Chorus:
You know you made me love you
You made me want your touch
I never imagined I could love
Somebody so much.
In all of this world there's no other
You captured my heart and soul
The greatest love story
That'll never, ever be told.
Verse 2:
At night when I lay by your side
And hear you heart beat close to mine
You take my breath awayLost in your love.
And then in the morning when I wake
I feel your soft touch on my face
You are my partner, my lover
And my friend.
Chorus:
You know you made me love you
You made me want your touch
I never imagined I could love
Somebody so much.
In all of this world there's no other
You captured my heart and soul
The greatest love story
That'll never, ever be told.
Bridge:
I must find me a way
Just the right words to say
The difference?.you've made?. In my life.
But the words won't come
I'm so lost in your love
Can you feel it
That burning deep down inside?
Tag:
You know that you made me love you.
You captured my heart and my soul.
The greatest love story that will
Never, ever be told.
