Welcome To This Sunday

The Shambles is often called Europe's best preserved medieval street, although the name is also used to collectively refer to the surrounding maze of narrow, twisting lanes and alleys as well. The street itself is mentioned in the Domesday Book, so we know that it has been in continuous existence for over 900 years.

The name "Shambles" comes from the Saxon "Fleshammels", which means, "the street of the butchers", for it was here that the city's butcher's market was located. The butcher's shops have now been replaced with shops catering to visitors, including jewelry and antiques; indeed, the Shambles is now one of the premier shopping areas in the city of York.

Have my powers of observation, now all gone?
Failing to notice, just listening to your song.
Missing the beauty, as I walk along?
Feeling your presence, after so very long.

External colours, I fail to see.
For this is the day, you spend with me.
Too busy ensuring, that you do smile.
Feeling your presence, each and every mile.

How many couples, hands are holding?
I notice not, our souls are moulding.
Too busy with you, just sharing a day.
Feeling your presence, along the way.

At peace with this world, and so very calm.
Feeling your presence, so you suffer no harm.
Protect and defend, giving you my best shot.
Is life a shambles?, Certainly not!

There is only one way to say
"I Love You"
But there are thousands of ways to demonstrate
