WHAT WILL IT TAKE

I don’t want money or a big fine fancy car

I just want you, honey, I love you just as you are

I don’t want gifts of diamond rings and such

I just want your kisses, and your gentle touch

It does not take much to please me, my love

We were brought together by God above

You have definitely been His plan for my life

I’ve enjoyed all these years of being your wife

When we married we were joined as one

God blessed us with both a daughter and son

and when they were grown, a beautiful grandson

so tell me now why it seems we are done?

I’ve done everything that I know to do

To show you just how much I love you

I am not a material kind of girl

You and our children are my world

I don’t know what else I can say

Inside I die a little more each day

How long must I continue to carry on

Like I am in this relationship all alone

What will it take to make you see

The toll this situation has taken on me

And how it’s affected my mental health

I just want you, I don’t care about wealth.

I don’t want money or a big, fine fancy car

I just want you, honey, I love you as you are
