I fell in love with you in spring.

When we sat by the lake

and had a picnic. When we fed the ducks

and then the pigeons swarmed us.

When we walked hand in hand in the park.

When you climbed the tree

to rescue my kite.

When you picked me fresh flowers

and I made you a crown.

I fell in love.

I fell in love with you in summer.

When we chased each other in the sprinklers.

When you put your arm around me in the movie theater.

When we got in your car with no destination,

just the windows down and the volume up.

When we caught fireflies,

then let them go.

When we had ice cream eating contests

that you let me win.

When we rode the roller coasters

with our eyes closed just to feel the wind.

I fell in love.

I fell in love with you in autumn.

When we danced in the sea of leaves.

When we spent Sundays watching football.

When you gave me your sweatshirt when I was cold.

When we sat under a blanket

and looked at the stars and shared our dreams.

I fell in love.

I fell in love with you in winter.

When your cheeks were red.

When we gave each other eskimo kisses.

When we made snow angels together.

When we made hot chocolate and I took all your marshmallows.

I fell in love.

And I look forward to another year

when I can fall in love with you

all over again.
