Composed: October 20, 2007



My mom gave birth to me, everybody knows that.
Not my father, not my brother and not my relatives,
just my mom.
But I want to ask this,
who's the one who making me stay alive
And who's the one helping and teaching me how to live?
It's not my mom, not my father, not my brother
but YOU my wife.
I don't know how you make all this.
Maybe that's the power of love.
Everybody saying thank you?!
Not enough to tell you that
I'm really happy you came in my life...
