Sweet Life

Tom continues to surprise me.  He is a police officer/former Army man who loves anything outdoors, guns, and his country.  Knowing this, one would probably assume he is a beer and pizza kind of guy.  When in actuality, he appreciates fine red wine and exotic cuisine (not that he doesn't love him some pizza too :)).  If he had his way, we would eat only organic and shop only at the Fresh Market.  He loves love stories and I swear tears up at happy endings.

  Another surprising detail to his personality is his choice in music.  I would have guessed upon meeting him that he was a classic rock/hard rock kind of guy.  Nope.  Play a cheesy 70's love song and watch him light up.  I poke fun at his music all the time, although the truth is that I think it is adorable.  Today, he gave me the sweetest compliment.  He told me that he listens to "Sweet Life" by Paul Davis on youtube and thinks of our life together.  He said he can't wait to play it for our children.  If you aren't familiar with the song, you can listen by going here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZR1YPRim_Y

For the rest of you, I have pasted the lyrics below.  After reading, tell me, How could I not fall completely in love with this man?

She's got your eyes, she's got my nose
And I get high just watching her grow
We always dreamed we'd live in a castle
Oh, but we're in the same old shack
Sometimes we get into a hassle
But we always take each other back
This old world seems to be in a hurry
But darlin' we'll just keep on takin' our time

'Cause we're livin' such a sweet life
Oh what a neat life
Sharin' my love with you
We're livin' such a sweet life
Oh what a neat life
Makin' our dreams come true
We're makin' our dreams come true

You are my love, you are my life
And I get high just holding you tight
We always dreamed we'd make a lot of money
I don't mind being poor
'Cause when you make love to me, honey
I couldn't ask for any more
All our friends seem to be in a hurry
But darlin' we'll just keep on takin' our time

'Cause we're livin' such a sweet life
Oh what a neat life
Sharin' my love with you
We're livin' such a sweet life
Oh what a neat life
Makin' our dreams come true
We're makin' our dreams come true
