VERSE 1.
Twenty years ago
She was part of a crowd
Standing across the room
But, soon everyone there disappeared
It wasn't love at first sight
They had to look twice
But in the snap of a finger
And a wink of the eye
They were sharing their lives
Twenty years ago

Lift
And as they held each other they barely moved
And the room began spinning just to prove ... that ....

Chorus
Twenty years ago can seem like yesterday
When love appears and makes you give your heart away
So, you just let go
And before you know
It's twenty years ago

VERSE 2.
At a baseball game
Out in the bleachers
He pulled a diamond from out of his shirt
And asked if she could love him forever
She said, "I'll need some time"
Then she turned away
But she spun around and smiled
And he heard her say, "That's all the time I need"
Twenty years ago

Lift
And as they held each other they barely moved
And the stadium was spinning just to prove ... that ...

Repeat Chorus

BRIDGE
There's not a day that doesn't start or end
When they're not living with their best friend
Finding new ways to please each other
Finding new ways to fall in love
Whoa, whoa, whoa

Lift
And as they hold each other they barely move
And the world keeps spinning just to prove ... that ...

Repeat Chorus
