"Ever Since"

You walked into my life,
A day I'll always remember
It was Thanksgiving Day,
The twenty-fifth of November.

I've been giving thanks ever since.

You gave me a smile,
And then I smiled back at you.
There was no need for words,
We just smiled the whole day through.

And I've been smiling ever since.

The sun began to set
And countless stars lit up the skies
But no star shone as bright
as the twinkle in your eyes.

My life seems brighter ever since.

Ever since I met you
And I saw your pretty smile
We've been the best of friends
And I've loved you all the while.
