Ernie

We met across the internet, just glowing in the dark

Two strangers through a lonely screen, hoping for a spark

I didn't know the man I'd find would be so brave and strong

But Ernie, you're the one I've needed all along

You're my shelter from the weather, you're my steady ground

The most protective, handsome man that I have ever found

In twenty-twenty-three, you brought me to your house to stay

You saved me from the shadows and you chased the dark away

I love you deeply, Ernie, more than words could ever say

I love to sit and listen to the knowledge in your mind

A man so intelligent is really hard to find

You guide me with your wisdom and you hold me with your might

A loving heart that makes the heavy mornings feel so bright

You're my shelter from the weather, you're my steady ground

The most protective, handsome man that I have ever found

In twenty-twenty-three, you brought me to your house to stay

You saved me from the shadows and you chased the dark away

I love you deeply, Ernie, more than words could ever say

I used to think that heroes were just stories in a book

But you showed me what courage is with every step you took

You wrapped your arms around my life when I was feeling low

And gave me a forever place where we can safely grow

You're my shelter from the weather, you're my steady ground

The most protective, handsome man that I have ever found

In twenty-twenty-three, you brought me to your house to stay

You saved me from the shadows and you chased the dark away

I love you deeply, Ernie, more than words could ever say

Thank you for saving me, I love you more each day
