North Pole Vows

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I was fifteen, barely grown Standing near a country home Then I saw those eyes of blue A boy who'd change my whole world through Life pulled us on different roads But heaven held what no one knows [Chorus] Oh Berny, you taught me love The kind that's sent from up above Through the miles and through the years Through the laughter and the tears You showed me what forgiving means The truest love I've ever seen [Verse 2] You reached across the empty space A letter, then a warm embrace "Pack your bags and come to me," To Alaska, wild and free At the North Pole we said "I do" And I fell deeper into you [Chorus] Oh Berny, you taught me love The kind that's sent from up above Through the miles and through the years Through the laughter and the tears You showed me what forgiving means The truest love I've ever seen [Bridge] Our firstborn had your eyes of blue A little piece of me and you Through every storm our faith held on A healing grace to lean upon [Verse 3] Back to Virginia soil we came Three children carrying our name Eight grandkids, three greats now too All this love began with you I never knew a heart could hold A love this deep, this pure, this gold [Chorus] Oh Berny, you taught me love The kind that's sent from up above Through the miles and through the years Through the laughter and the tears You showed me what forgiving means The truest love I've ever seen [Outro] Still those beautiful eyes of blue There's no one, love, but you Forever, Berny, this is true
