Lover and friend,
She stands by my side through it all.
She doesn't pretend to be in a hurry,
Or give into worry should the sky fall.
She's my companion,
She listens and lifts up her heart,
She knows I'm her man,
She makes my world bright,
And you know it was right
And from the very start.
See the wheels inside me turning,
She knows just what I'm thinking.
Somewhere deep inside
A yearning to hold her now.
And still it seems like yesterday
That my lady came into my live,
She came to stay.
Wife of my youth, daily my delight, I do love her.
And she loves me too, she's there to receive me,
She cares and believe me,
We are for each other.
She's my companion,
She listens and lifts up her heart,
She knows I'm her man,
She makes my world bright,
And you know it was right
And from the very start.
See the wheels inside me turning,
She knows just what I'm thinking.
Somewhere deep inside
A yearning to hold her now.
And still it seems like yesterday
That my lady came into my live,
She came to stay.
