Disclaimer: excuse my horrible voice; it's just how it sounds, and on top of it I also had a cold and with my primitive recording technology, had to record it in one take! And added to that, I can't actually play the guitar, hence the terrible a-rhythmic guitar playing. Hopefully you get the gist and the spirit of this ditty ... My very first published song written for and dedicated to my husband, Edwin van Ras

I thought I saw you when I jumped into that pool
I thought I’d like you when you tried to act all cool
When you asked me would I mind
to see the market where we could unwind?

I thought I loved you when we went to Byron Bay
I loved you by the time I had to go away
You gave me a Lonely Planet guide
And a brand new world opened up wide

Every day, I simply can’t forget
Every day, since the day that we first met
Perfect days, they’re all perfect days
Perfect days, perfect days

And so I loved you after a very little while
I knew I loved you when I paraded up the aisle
At the altar you began to cry
And then a minute later so did I

So the days go on
On and on in the great beyond

Every day, I simply can’t forget
Every day, since the day that we were wed
Perfect days, they’re all perfect days
Perfect days, perfect days
Perfect days, perfect days

I know I love you when you’re dancing
And I know I love you in the dark
When we hold hands riding our bikes
Go pickin’ flowers, make the house look nice

I know I love you when you carry my bag for me
And I know I love you when you make a cup of tea
I see your eyes closed in the morning sun
It’s easy to see you’re the perfect one

Perfect days, perfect days, perfect days, perfect days
Every day's a perfect day with you

For my schatje on our 1st wedding anniversary 14-07-08

Happy wedding anniversary, Jane and Edwin.

I can't believe that a year has passed since we all gathered together in that tiny chuch and watched you arrive in a white VW. A perfect day and one that has turned into a perfect year.

All my love.
