Some loves aren't lost — they're just waiting for the right moment to find their way back. This song tells the story of two people who met too young, drifted apart for thirty years, and were somehow brought back together by something greater than coincidence — building a family, crossing state lines, and proving that the heart knows what it always knew. It's a celebration of second chances, chosen family, and a love that was always meant to be, just waiting until the timing was finally right.

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Seventeen with the world in her eyes, Nineteen and too young to know why A love like that doesn't come twice, But I let it slip into the night Thirty years of silence in between, Till God wrote a new scene [Chorus] You threw me back when I was too small, Waited til I could carry it all Hazel eyes lit up the dark, Blonde hair and a healing heart Here's to love that found its way, To this anniversary day [Verse 2] "Texas ain't happening," that's what you said, A year later, you wore my ring instead And a bonus I never dared to pray, A beautiful girl who chose me that day Called me Dad with all of her heart, Gave me a home I'd known from the start No blood between us, but love runs deep, Deeper than blood — a promise we keep [Chorus] You threw me back when I was too small, Waited til I could carry it all Anita, your hazel eyes light the dark, Blonde hair and a healing heart Here's to love that found its way, To this anniversary day [Bridge] From Texas stages to a Michigan sky, Our daughter walked tall, TTU pride Every road, you came along, Anita, you're my country song [Verse 3] Look how far this love has grown, A legacy of seeds we've sown The girl we were meant to share, God knew and placed her there Some fish are caught when the timing's right, And darlin', we're the proof tonight [Chorus] You threw me back when I was too small, Waited til I could carry it all Anita, your hazel eyes light the dark, Blonde hair and a healing heart Here's to love that found its way, To this anniversary day [Outro] Thirty years lost, forever to find, Anita, you're the love of my life
