Analysis of MY VOW TO HER
I told you I have something more than silver
Worth more than money can buy
Her gorgeous gown made me wander,
What made me lucky, I didn't know until now.
I can't describe the sweetness embodied,
A thousand words cannot convey.
Where should I unfold my greatest gift?
My thoughts are filled with memories of thee.
She happens to be the antidote for my solitude,
The doctor said I'm stronger than I used to be.
It's your passion that resides within me.
I can't afford to lose you.
There's one thing I need at this point.
Can you turn a deaf ear to rumor?
Don't forget where we come from,
My vow was to love you than you've known before.
