Parked Right By My Side

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Twenty-five years, and it feels like yesterday You watched me from across that factory floor You followed me around just to see what I'd do Had a coworker move his car so you could park by me Then you finally asked me out to breakfast And you had me from that morning [Chorus] It's you and me against the world, baby You've had my back since day one That's why, John, my heart is yours Thank you for loving me for me [Verse 2] You stared when I ordered that tomato and mayo biscuit Who knew a girl could surprise you like that Then long talks after work, from a.m. to p.m. You were so patient and passionate with our time The first time that you held me, I felt whole and complete When you trace that little freckle on my face, it looks like you're falling in love all over again You never tried to change me, you love me as I am [Chorus] It's you and me against the world, baby You've had my back since day one That's why, John, my heart is yours Thank you for loving me for me [Bridge] You love your kids more than you love yourself You show them every day with wisdom and laughter With your corny dad jokes When times get hard and the road feels long and cold I fall for you again, over and over, J[Verse 3] A few months later, lying in bed, you asked me to be your wife You hadn't planned it, baby, but you knew it was the right time Whatever's broken, you fix it, our house, my heart, my faith, our love I'm still so grateful that you parked right by my side [Chorus] It's you and me against the world, baby Our fixer, our forever, our number one That's why, John, my heart is yours Thank you for loving us, for loving me [Outro] You and me, baby, always you and me Against the world, forever, you and me
