about

Written for my sister's wedding

lyrics

Been thinking of the rest of my days.
All of my years together with you.
Love come what may. Happy and true
And I'll take every moment with you.
And I'll kiss you through roses and thorns.
Through sharp rocks and cool grass
I'll walk to your side.
Grey hair or curled, you'll be my world
And I'll love every moment with you.

You know, you are the one that I've waited for
all of my life through today.
And now that you're here
Every day is the best it's own way
As I look to the next.

Let yours be the hand that I hold
The warmth in my heart,
through fire or through cold
Give me your hand as we grow old
And I'll give every moment to you.

I'll stay with you.
Words and deeds will not cover our needs, that is true.
But let us be full.
Do as we say and we say as we do
And we'll always be true.
Cause that face there is you
The only love that I knew.

And I'll kiss you through roses and thorns.
Through sharp rocks and cool grass
I'll walk to your side.
Grey hair or curled, you'll be my world
And I'll love every moment with you.

I know yours is the face I'll be waking to.
All of my dreams lead to you.
Together when dark turns to black
I will follow you back to horizons aglow
And the sun will rise up I know.
