Lyrics
If I could sing you a song that would tell you
Just how much we belong to each other
Well, you know just how it?d sound
It?d be one of those things that?s got lots of flowers
And midnight flings and Spring time showers
And you know just how it?d sound
And I say darling in struggles and the strife
You became the anchor of my life
Well the chairs would all go back to the wall
Grab your best partner, dos-e-doh, one and all
And you know just how it?s sound
Everybody?s feet would be tappin?
And all around the room their hands would be clappin?
And you know just how it?d sound
And I say darling in the struggles and the strife
You became the anchor of my life
Then later at night when the music is over
We?d hold hands tight and walk in the clover
?Cause you know just what we?ve found
Silently we?d look up at the stars
The kids would be catchin? lightnin? bugs in jars
And you know just how it?d sound
And I say darling in the trouble and the strife
You?re giving me the best years of my life
