Claudette and Her Sailor

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Sixty years of morning light, Two hands still holding tight. A sailor's heart that crossed the sea, Came home and gave his all to me. Through every wave and every year, The good Lord kept our anchor near. [Chorus] Oh, we built a life on faith and love, On grace that came from up above. Three sons to raise, a world to roam, And every road still led us home. Still in love, still side by side, Claudette and her sailor, hand in hand we ride. [Verse 2] We chased the tide from shore to shore, Beneath the waves we found much more. Down deep where quiet oceans gleam, We lived out every ocean dream. And when we surfaced, breathless, free, There was no better place to be. [Chorus] Oh, we built a life on faith and love, On grace that came from up above. Three sons to raise, a world to roam, And every road still led us home. Still in love, still side by side, Claudette and her sailor, hand in hand we ride. [Bridge] Grandchildren's laughter fills the air, A legacy beyond compare. What tried to slow us couldn't stay — Our joy just kept on lighting the way. [Verse 3] Now we wait for one last chapter, love, Guided gently from above. No fear of what the years may send, For faith will hold us to the end. And Claudette, know this is true: I'd cross it all again with you. [Chorus] Oh, we built a life on faith and love, On grace that came from up above. Three sons to raise, a world to roam, And every road still led us home. Still in love, still side by side, Claudette and her sailor, hand in hand we ride. [Outro] Sixty years and still we glow, Two hearts the whole world came to know. Comfort, faith, and joy remain — Forever, love, we'll ride again.
