Not Getting Out Alive

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Twelve years older, from Michigan you came, Two loves behind you, weary and unsure. You found your way to Oregon, my home, Not certain that your heart could love once more. [Chorus] But I told you, Scott, you're not getting out alive, This heart of mine is yours for all my days. You're the good man, loyal, standing by my side, The only one I'd choose in a thousand ways. [Verse 2] Three jobs you worked so I could chase my dream, A nurse's cap, you made it all come true. You fought your own storm, stronger than it seemed, And came out standing, tenderhearted, true. [Chorus] Oh I told you, Scott, you're not getting out alive, This heart of mine is yours for all my days. You're the good man, loyal, standing by my side, The only one I'd choose in a thousand ways. [Bridge] You loved my folks like they were your own kin, You gave me family, kids and babies too. I feel loved like I never felt within, I'd be so lost if I didn't have you. [Verse 3] Now we watch the sunsets fade to gold, Camping under stars, our little town. Twenty-eight years and life is growing slow, There's no one I would rather grow old down. [Chorus] So I'll tell you, Scott, you're not getting out alive, This heart of mine is yours for all my days. My best friend, my husband, proud right by your side, The only one I'd choose in a thousand ways. [Outro] I'm not always good at showing what I feel, But honey, this love is forever real.
