Thirty
One years we've walked hand in hand
I wouldn't trade a minute of one day
With you, I know you like the back of
My hand, you're my comfort zone, my easy
Chair, my soft place to land
I'm proud of the Godly man you are
Proud of your kind compassionate heart, I
Appreciate your devotion to family, I love
That you're not ashamed for me to see you
Cry, we've dried each others tears many
Times
We have become a lot like each other
Over the years, we can read each others
Thoughts, finish one another's sentences, one
Of the things I love about you is you've
Always treated me with respect, you're a
Gentleman through and through
Your love has always sheltered me, you've
Stood with me through thick and thin, you're
My invisible means of support, you stayed behind
To care for Mom so the boys and I could
Pursue our dream to sing, thank you for all
Those times you took my place
Thanks for being the best friend I could
Ever have hoped for, I'd like to think that
We'll be watching old movies, drinking hot
Chocolate, cuddling our little dogs, reading
Scripture, praying together, lifting each other
Up another thirty one years
I love you with every beat of my heart
If tomorrow the LORD has taken me home, I
Want you to know I cherished my life with
You, the good and the sad, I'm so thankful
The LORD loved me so much, he gave me you
You say you love me more, I say, NEVER.
