A long time ago
At a dark teenage dance
I looked across the room
And saw her by chance
Her beauty was unmatched
From her head to her toes
In a field of wild flowers
She stood out like a rose
As I started to approach her
My heart filled with fear
Would I be rejected
if she came to near?
But my fears were in vain
As she looked into my eyes
"I would love to dance with you"
came as a very big surprise!
From that moment on
And from the heavens above
I knew I had found her
My one and only true love
And as I look back
Over the past thirty seven years
I thank God for that night
That started out full of fear.
Not only did I find a wife
but my very best friend
someone I could trust
until the very end!
After four children
And a life full of fun
It just keeps getting better
And I know I have won.
If a man has one true friend
at the end of his life
then he has accomplished a lot
especially, if the friend is his wife.
