Song I wrote for my beautiful wife when I proposed to her. This is a very rough draft. I hope to make a more polished recording soon.

Story behind the song
I wrote this song for my beautiful wife and played it for her for the first time when I proposed to her. It was a moment we'll both remember forever.
Lyrics
Tears of Silver - Greg Speier
I have waited
Your eyes captivated
My heart worn upon my faded sleeve
Cautious I've been
Your love softly opened
Me to dreams that I could not conceive
To drown inside your eyes forever
I'd swim across an angry sea
To kiss your dreams with tears of silver
I would abandon all of me
I have wanted
To find love undaunted
By the fractures of this tragic world
All my love is for you
Desperately my sould adores you
Words once frozen, forever to be unfurled
To drown inside your eyes forever
I'd swim across an angry sea
To kiss your dreams with tears of silver
I would abandon all of me
And I want to buy you back
A dream to call your own
I want to buy you back
A love to call your home
To hold back the hands of time that turn so swiftly, ohh
To walk down the halls of time with you for fifty years
Forsaking all I am and everything I know
To kiss away your tears
