Shadow Lake in April

Lyrics

[Verse 1] To Shadow Lake in April's light, My sister called me out one night. The bar was warm, the drinks were free, Then something pulled my eyes to see — A quiet man across the floor, Those ocean eyes, and so much more. [Chorus] And oh, what a blessing, what a grace, The moment I first saw your face. Two different hearts, one steady flame, I found my forever when you came. John, my love, my guiding star, I thank the night for who you are. [Verse 2] Off to breakfast in your black Corvette, This BMW girl wasn't sold just yet. But there was something about you, Even though we'd just met. The dinner next weekend, And our fate was set. [Chorus] And oh, what a blessing, what a grace, The moment I first saw your face. Two different hearts, one steady flame, I found my forever when you came. John, my love, my guiding star, I thank the night for who you are. [Bridge] Through thirty-seven amazing years, Through miles on the road with trust and tears, You never complained, you never denied, You cheered my dreams, you walked beside. [Verse 3] Through all the nights when I've been gone, You stood by me, you carried on. You gave up time, gave up your own, So I could rise, so I could grow. My John, my love and my best friend, I'd choose your love all over again. [Chorus] And oh, what a blessing, what a grace, The moment I first saw your face. Two different hearts, one steady flame, I found my forever when you came. John, my love, my guiding star, I thank the night for who you are. [Outro] Work boots, high heels, that's who we are, My John, my love, my forever star.
