Always Me and You

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Young hearts and a highway between us, Four years of the miles we would drive. A phone line, a promise to keep us, Just to keep this good love alive. Through the stops and the starts we kept going, Coming home to two hearts still on fire. [Chorus] After all we have been through it all, Two angels rescued from the fall. Through the long roads and the years apart, We kept coming back to these two hearts. Every mile only made it true — It was always me and you. [Verse 2] You proposed halfway through the distance, Then one summer we finally wed. One more year, then I came home for good, love, And we built a whole life instead. Three fine sons and a girl to complete us, Hard-won days but we never once fell. [Chorus] After all we have been through it all, Two angels rescued from the fall. Through the lean times, the laughter, the strife, We kept building this beautiful life. Every prayer only made it true — It was always me and you. [Bridge] Emy, your faith is a quiet light, Your compassion for those in need. The values you carry, the way that you love — That's the man you have always been to me. [Verse 3] Thirty-five years and I'd choose you again, Every argument, banter, and grace. Now retirement's calling us softly, Just to travel, or stay in one place. You have stood by me making the big calls, Emy, thank you for holding my hand. [Chorus] After all we have been through it all, Two angels rescued from the fall. Through the whole life we've carried and grown, You're the only home I've ever known. Every year only made it true — It was always me and you. [Outro] Happy birthday, my Emy, my love, After all, it comes down to you.
