Lyrics
[Verse 1] They told him 'bout a girl from Philly Pretty smile, pretty feet, walking easy Same firm, same floor, different stories Two souls just minding their own glory don't move on our time She was writing your name beside mine [Chorus] Slow and steady, love grew right Built on respect, no rush, no fight Through the hard days, we still chose us Friendship first, then sacred trust Eight years deep, four years vowed Standing here so proud [Verse 2] A Bahamian boy, eleven years old Came to America, brave and bold Built a life from the ground up high Never once asked the world to be kind Roosevelt, you weren't what I thought I'd find But baby, you were heaven's design [Chorus] Slow and steady, love grew right Built on respect, no rush, no fight Through the hard days, we still chose us Friendship first, then sacred trust Eight years deep, four years vowed Standing here so proud [Bridge] Then came RJ, our miracle prayer Then little Roman, our answered air Two princes laughing, Blue at the door A castle full of everything we hoped for [Verse 3] You run the business, you hold the home You put us first, we're never alone Gentle man, learning to heal Teaching me what's soft and real Roosevelt, my husband, my truest friend This is a love that won't ever end [Chorus] Slow and steady, love grew right Built on respect, no rush, no fight Through every season, we still choose us Friendship first, then sacred trust Eight years deep, four years vowed Forever, here and now [Outro] A girl from Philly, a man from the sea Roosevelt, you and me
