Still Your Lully

Lyrics

[Verse 1] A hospital in a distant land, A medic with a steady hand, I was the nurse who caught your eye, Two hearts beneath a southern sky. Cape Town waves and morning sand, We walked the shore, hand in hand. [Chorus] Oh Doll, through it all we stayed, Forty-seven years, we never frayed. Through the storms that came our way, I will love you till the end, I say. Still your Lully, still your friend, I will love you till the end. [Verse 2] September third, we said our vows, Four little ones filled up our house. We hit a rough and lonesome mile, But we held on all the while. Eighteen years since we came through, Stronger now, me and you. [Chorus] Oh Doll, through it all we stayed, Forty-seven years, we never frayed. Through the storms that came our way, I will love you till the end, I say. Still your Lully, still your friend, I will love you till the end. [Bridge] For the empty chairs we quietly mourn, For the grandkids missed since they were born, We choose forgiveness, we choose to mend, And lean on hope around each bend. [Verse 3] At seventy-two you're working still, Teaching lost legs to climb the hill. You give your all so I can roam With rescued horses, our second home. Your steady brown eyes see me through, That's the drive in me and you. [Chorus] Oh John, through it all we stayed, Forty-seven years, we never frayed. Through the storms that came our way, I will love you till the end, I say. Still your Lully, still your friend, I will love you till the end. [Outro] Oh John, my Doll, my whole life long, You're the heart of every song.
