A Text, a Yes, Forever

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Some loves arrive like thunder, Some come in soft and slow, Mine came in a simple text Fourteen years ago. The day before they wheeled me in, I asked you to be mine. [Chorus] You are my grace, my steady place, My wife and my best friend, A giving heart, a forgiving soul, A love that has no end. Here's to every year we've shared, And all the years ahead. [Verse 2] I woke up with my head pounding, The nurses wouldn't budge, Then I got sick all over your shoes, You never held a grudge. Oh Marjory, you just laughed, And I knew right then you'd stay. [Chorus] You are my grace, my steady place, My wife and my best friend, A giving heart, a forgiving soul, A love that has no end. Here's to every year we've shared, And all the years ahead. [Bridge] You carry your mama and daddy's love In every word you say, You give it all away so freely, Forgive me every day. [Verse 3] We've chased the sun down open roads, Seen places far and wide, But I would trade a thousand miles Just to be by your side. You love this man with all you are, And I'll love you just the same. [Chorus] Oh Marjory, my grace, my steady place, My wife and my best friend, A giving heart, a forgiving soul, A love that has no end. Here's to every year we've shared, And all the years ahead. [Outro] Fourteen years, a text, a yes, And laughter on your shoes, Of all the blessings in my life, The best, Marjory, is you.
