TO MY LOVELY WIFE SELMA ON HER FIRST ANNIVERSARY IN HEAVEN

WORDS CANNOT DESCRIBE HOW MUCH I MISS YOU SINCE YOU LEFT MY SIDE
YOU WERE MY LIFE'S COMPANION AND MY GUIDE

SELMA, SELMA MY LOVELY WIFE
YOU WERE TRULY THE JOY THAT WAS IN MY LIFE

I HAVE LOST MUCH OF MY ENERGY SINCE I LOST MY WIFE
YOU WERE TRULY THE ENGINE OF MY LIFE

I WOULD TRAVEL TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH
BECAUSE TO ME, THAT IS WHAT YOU ARE WORTH

IN MY HEART FOREVER MORE
IT IS YOU THAT I ALWAYS ADORE

I WOULD GIVE ANYTHING TO HAVE YOU BACK IN MY ARMS ONCE MORE
SO THAT I CAN BE AGAIN WITH ONE THAT I ADORE
