I'm married to this Muslim Arab, A lovely woman who wears the hijab. Our differences dissolve in love Of God, of life, of one another. A lovely woman who wears the hijab Comes naked to my marriage bed. Of God, of life, of one another, We then say not a single word. Comes naked to my marriage bed, As naked as we are to God. We then say not a single word, But silently I thank the Lord. As naked as we are to God, Our differences dissolve in love, But silently I thank the Lord I'm married to this Muslim Arab.
