Lyrics
Lives are made up of memories...Some past, some present, more to come
We store them away to replay on day, when we're older, of when we were young
Now after 30 years, through laughter and tears,
We move as one unit it seems.
You put purpose in my life, when you became my wife,
Painting my future with dreams
And as we walk through life's madness, sorrow and sadness,
The day to day struggles of life.
We clasp our hands tightly, and re-affirm nightly, together, forever, you and I,
You're beautiful, witty and smart
Our daughter takes after you, (though a little more wild)
You've given me my space, put me in my place,
Stood by us through all of our trials.
Sometimes you cry over little things,
Things I don't understand,
Then you give me your hand, together we stand
Ready for whatever tomorrow brings.
As we breathe or final breath, and take our final steps
We may leave this earth one at a time,
We will walk to the new life hand in hand
Together forever, you and I
Together forever, you and I, you and I
