The Keepin Kind

She put laughter
where tears used to be.
Gave me faith to love
and put trust back in me.

She spun my world round
made the good side show.
Taught me to stand up
to use everything I know.

She put joy in my heart
let me set a new goal
planted love deep inside
gave hope a leading role.

So anything you say
bout this woman of mine
simply trash to me...
she's the keeping kind.
