Someday Came and Stayed

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Twenty-two years down this winding road, Through the sunshine and the heavy load. I remember how I used to pray, For a "yes" instead of "someday maybe." You held your heart just out of reach, 'Til grace stepped in and taught me patience. [Chorus] Mary Alice, you're my answered prayer, Through the storms I always found you there. Faithful, steady, tender and true, Every day I fall in love with you. Thank the Lord for the vows we made, Standing strong, unafraid. [Verse 2] I asked you once, I asked you twice, You'd smile and whisper, "someday" so nice. Then one bright morning heaven smiled, And you walked to me down that aisle. We've weathered valleys, climbed our hills, But hand in hand we're climbing still. [Chorus] Mary Alice, you're my answered prayer, Through the storms I always found you there. Faithful, steady, tender and true, Every day I fall in love with you. Thank the Lord for the vows we made, Standing strong, unafraid. [Bridge] When the nights were long and cold, Your gentle faith would steady my soul. Comfort found in your embrace, A love no time could ever erase. [Verse 3] So here's to all the years ahead, The quiet prayers beside our bed. I'd wait a thousand "somedays" through, Just to spend forever loving you. Grateful for this life we share, Devoted heart and answered prayer. [Chorus] Mary Alice, you're my answered prayer, Through the storms I always found you there. Faithful, steady, tender and true, Every day I fall in love with you. [Outro] Someday came and stayed for good, Just like I always knew it would.
