You're Everything & More
You warm me up on wet Wednesday nights
You’re my half time cup o’Bovril
You excite me by faux candlelight
Sticky page of a Mills & Boon novel
Dependable but a pure delight
Like a through ball from Glenn Hoddle
Let me be entertained as I try to explain
…You’re everything and more
You bring me comfort and cure my hunger
Like a pan of ‘tater ash
Still turn my head in wonder
Like Daryl Hannah did in Splash
You can clear my world of thunder
And lightning in a flash
You ease my pain, radiate through rain
A sunrise over gentle shores
You’re my Rock N Roll
My Northern Soul
You’re every song that I sing
You’re my waterfall
My wonderwall
My first, my last
My everything
You’re the beat keeps my rhythm
I’m John and Paul to your Ringo
My antidote to being heathen
Cos you help me learn the lingo
You give my life a reason
Like pensioners have bingo
My Kelly’s Eye, my all-time high
You’re everything and more
As considerate as a person can be
You’d pull lions from lions paws
Orderly so everything is handy
You are my bottom drawer
I obey when you command me
Because your love is the law
It’ll to and fro, but what you say goes
Cos you’re everything and more
A confidante who’ll listen
You’re my Lois Lane
You numb my minds affliction
You’re my novocaine
My heart, my souls addiction
More potent than cocaine
I love you more each day, every possible way
Every breath, every inch, every pore
You tantalise my senses
Heighten all my feelings
Galvanise my defences
Help to keep me breathing
My new dawn without pretences…
Cos we’re something I believe in…
My heart implodes for my Yorkshire rose
You’re my everything and more
We’ve rode the bumps, absorbed the knocks
There is nothing about you I would alter
In stormy seas you are my rock
You are my Gibraltar
And if I could return to the starting block
I’d still meet you at the altar
So I cherish the day, 20th May…
…Cos you’re everything and more
