My husband, Len Morgan, grew up in Seal Cove, Conception Bay South, NL, met me in St. John's, where I grew up. We got married in 1969, and have been married now for 40 years. My husband works in Fort McMurray, AB. Sleeping one night he had a dream, that he and I were dancing to this song. When he woke up, he started to write it down, and remembered every word that he dreamed, wrote it down and sent it to me.

I love and look forward each month to the Downhome; keep it up, and thank you. I receive the Downhome through Brendalee, my daughter.

She's the Love of My Life

By Len Morgan

She's the love of my life, And the
Light in my heart.
She don't have to worry when we're
far apart.
I will never do her wrong, it just
isn't right, she's more than my
friend, she's the love of my life.
When I'm far away and I'm working
at night, I so often long I could
hold my girl tight.
Then the moon comes up as bright as
can be, and I hope she's feeling the
Same way about me.
When my time is up, and I'm 24 out
with 7 days off, I'm excited no doubt.
She'll be at the station, waiting
Patiently, her green eyes, and
they're smiling for me.

[Chorus:]

She's the love of my life, and the
Light in my heart.
She don't have to worry when we're
far apart. I'll never do her wrong
it just isn't right, she's more than my
friend, she's the love of my life.

We'll go up to Box Lake, and catch
us some trout, with a big fire going
to keep the chill out.
The kettle is on, and boiling you see,
Cold beer for my girl, but hot toddy
for me. We'll sing and we'll dance
with the fire burning bright,
with the stars shining down, It's
a beautiful night.
It's so good, my girl here with
me, Tomorrow I'll wake up she's
the first face I see.

[Chorus:]

She's the light of my life, and the
Love in my heart, she'll not have
to worry when we're far apart, I
will never do her wrong it just
Isn't right, she's more than my
Lover she's the love of my life.

Each time I leave and have
to go back, I feel terribly sad
and that's just a fact, I work far
away to make life better for us
for a wonderful girl that I know
I can trust. But soon I'll be
finished and I'm happy to say, back
with my darling and back there I'll
stay.

[Chorus:]

She's the love of my
life and the light in my heart.
She'll not have to worry when we're
far apart, I'll be by her side for
the rest of my life
She's my friend and my lover
She's my beautiful wife.
She's my friend and my lover
She's my beautiful wife.
