Now we all know that it is impossible for someone to give someone the moon. But would he, show you he cares in his own unique way?
Would he, buy 3 ply toilet paper just for your personal comfort?
Would he, carry around a backpack that had "juice boxes" and "granola bars", just in case your sugars went low!
Would he, spend hours rubbing your back cause you were in pain?
Would he, visit you in the hospital and push you around in a wheel chair?
Would he, buy crafts accessories for you, so you might make some extra money from selling your crafts. He even paid $20.00 each for dream catchers that he knew you bought at the dollar store cause he knew you needed money
Would he, spend hours online, studying your illness just so he could understand you better?
Would he, offer to fix your place at no cost just for you safety and health?
Would he, fix a door that "the other guy" kicked in?
Would he, buy your favorite snacks, (Mussels) even though he didn't eat them.
Would he, buy something out of the blue just cause he seen it and thought of you when he was shopping.
Would he, think of you when he hears a certain song?
Would he, worry about you when he hasn't heard or seen you in a few days?
Those were just a few of the many things, that "he" did to show you that you were special to him!
He is a nice hard working guy that would do anything for that someone that treats him right!
Take care, KLR
"Don't Know What You Got (Till It's Gone)"
I can't tell ya baby what went wrong
I can't make you feel what you felt
So long ago, I'll let it show
I can't give you back what's been hurt
Heartaches come and go and all that's
left are the words I can't let go
If we take some time to think it over baby
Take some time let me know
If you really wanna go
Don't know what you got till it's gone
Don't know what it is I did so wrong
Now I know what I got
It's just this song
And it ain't easy to get back
Takes so long
I can't feel the things that cause you pain
I can't clear my heart of your love
It falls like rain, ain't the same
I hear you calling far away
Tearing through my soul I just can't
Take another day, Who's to blame
If we take some time to think it over baby
Take some time let me know
If you really wanna go
Don't know what you got till it's gone
Don't know what it is I did so wrong
Now I know what I got
It's just this song
And it ain't easy to get back
Takes so long
Do you wanna see me beggin' baby
Can't you give me just one more day
Can't you see my heart's been draggin' lately
I've been lookin' for the words to say
Don't know what you got till it's gone
Don't know what it is I did so wrong
Now I know what I got
It's just this song
And it ain't easy to get back
Takes so long
