Analysis of Terry My love
Christine Mckinney 1969 (Cakifornia)
I was drowing in a sea of doubt
I didn't see any way out
my heart was full of sorrow
for me there was no hope for Tomorrow
then you came and gave me your love
I know God sent you from Heaven above
you put a smile in my heart
and joy in my soul
togather you and I will grow old
I love you more ever second of the day
baby please never take your love away
the love for each other only you and I know
we are buried deep in each others hearts
you and I will never part
