Everything

John has a pretty broad range of music taste. No genre is off limits, though one of his preferred styles is crooning. Among the favorites are Dean Martin, Harry Conick Jr, and at the top of that list is Michael Buble. I even love me some Buble. Whew!

Yesterday John came home eager to play a song for me, in typical John fashion, as he does this often. He busts out a CD he has burned and pops in some Michael Buble. He tells me that this song was for me. John can tell a story through songs, he has one for anything and everything, so this isn't something that catches me off guard.

Somehow this one was different. I was holding Bella in my arms on the couch, she was napping, and the song starts. I immediately take to the song, there isn't much that can come from Michael Buble that I don't like. The lyrics were cute, playful, yet so beautiful and meaningful. I look over at John and his eyes were all welled up.

It has been said that real men wear pink, real men can cry, real men are great fathers. I am proud to say that John does all of the above. Thanks honey for that moment that was just for me. I will not ever forget it. Thank you My Love, for EVERYTHING.

Everything
Michael Buble
You're a falling star, You're the get away car.
You're the line in the sand when I go too far.
You're the swimming pool, on an August day.
And you're the perfect thing to say.

And you play it coy, but it's kinda cute.
Ah, When you smile at me you know exactly what you do.
Baby don't pretend, that you don't know it's true.
Cause you can see it when I look at you.

[Chorus:]
And in this crazy life, and through these crazy times
It's you, it's you, You make me sing.
You're every line, you're every word, you're everything.

You're a carousel, you're a wishing well,
And you light me up, when you ring my bell.
You're a mystery, you're from outer space,
You're every minute of my everyday.

And I can't believe, uh that I'm your man,
And I get to kiss you baby just because I can.
Whatever comes our way, ah we'll see it through,
And you know that's what our love can do.

[Chorus:]
And in this crazy life, and through these crazy times
It's you, it's you, You make me sing
You're every line, you're every word, you're everything.

So, La, La, La, La, La, La, La
So, La, La, La, La, La, La, La

[Chorus:]
And in this crazy life, and through these crazy times
It's you, it's you, You make me sing.
You're every line, you're every word, you're everything.
You're every song, and I sing along.
'Cause you're my everything.
Yeah, yeah

So, La, La, La, La, La, La, La
So, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La
