Almost three decades of searching
Countless nights spent wondering
Feeling lonely having no hand to hold
Dying to know what the future foretold
Never revealed my heart to anyone
Yet still got it broken in more ways than one
Then you came along and I began
To let the light shine on, feel the warmth of the sun
What we had was far from shiny, new, or perfect
But never have I felt abandoned or left behind
Our flaws have cut and bruised us through the years
Yet, miraculously, you have slowly extinguished my fears
As the day drew near that we say "yes" to a lifetime
I think about the loves we had that came and went
How I was so lost thinking I could never find you on time
But it is when I never noticed that the heaven-sent packaged arrived
Though I worry for the future that lies ahead
Uncertainties, what-ifs, regrets sometimes fill my head
There was no darkness around the topic of what we had
In these ill-fated times, the thought of "us" made me glad
We may never be faultless and we have a lifetime to falter
But surprisingly, no doomsday thoughts of mine could alter
The decision to walk down the aisle, hand in hand with you
I've said the words long ago, and I'll say it again... I do.
