I, David, take thee, Samantha .
I, Samantha, take thee, David . . .
For richer, for poorer . . .
In sickness and in health . . .
To love and to honor . . .
To hold and to keep . . .
From each sun to each moon . . .
From tomorrow to tomorrow . . .
From now to forever . . .
Till death do us part.
With this ring, I thee wed.
With this ring, I thee wed.

Make of our hands one hand,
Make of our hearts one heart,
Make of our vows one last vow:
Only death will part us now.

Make of our lives one life,
Day after day, one life.

Now it begins, now we start
One hand, one heart;
Even death won't part us now.
Make of our lives one life,
Day after day, one life.
Now it begins, now we start
One hand, one heart,
Even death won't part us now.

Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim.

Even death won't part us now.

As I looked into your eyes
And saw your never ending love
I know that you were sent
By the angels from above

I made a lasting vow
As you held me in your arms
To always show you love
And to keep you safe from harm

I know how blessed I was
To be loved by one like you
Who gave me unconditional love
My loyal knight so true

One day your eyes didn’t smile
I looked and saw your pain
I knew physically we would part
But in my heart you will remain

Excerpts taken from the song "Goodbye My Lover"
~*~Written by James Blunt~*~

Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

I am a dreamer but when I wake,
You can't break my spirit - it's my dreams you take.
And as you move on, remember me,
Remember us and all we used to be
I've seen you cry, I've seen you smile.
I've watched you sleeping for a while.
I'd be the father of your child.
I'd spend a lifetime with you.
I know your fears and you know mine.
We've had our doubts but now we're fine,
And I love you, I swear that's true.
I cannot live without you.

Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

And I still hold your hand in mine.
In mine when I'm asleep.
And I will bear my soul in time,
When I'm kneeling at your feet.
Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me...

With one single tear I bid you farewell for I wanted so to stay.
With all the love you felt for me, you let me softly slip away.
With my hand in yours as you stroked my brow you whispered words of love.
As you lingered with memories of what had been, I watched you from above,
You wiped away that single tear and kept it close as I knew you would do.
It was all that I could leave behind to somehow stay with you.

The rain to the wind said,
"You push and I'll pelt."
They so smote the garden bed
That the flowers actually knelt,
And lay lodged -- though not dead.
I know how the flowers felt.

By Robert Frost

             

The sweetest flower that blows,
I give you as we part.
For you it is a Rose,
For me it is my heart."

~~Frederick Peterson 1859-1938~~
