One spark beneath those old oak leaves Passed between us when you smile Soon we were planting our own tree And prepared to walk down the aisle When you said: Take my hand, we’ll walk together through the forest Make our path, through all the beauty, still the forest Breathe it, feel it, hear it This peaceful breeze that flows Nature fills my spirit You complete my soul My soul ---
