July 7th 1976 is the day I got married, I like being married, I think my wife likes it to but you'll have to ask her.
A VERY GOOD DAY, IN THE LIFE OF OLD DAVE.
Do you remember, that day in September
we sat on a bench, somewhere down by the river
I held your hand, and I gave you a kiss then
I said I'd love you as long as I'm livin,
yeah that's what I said Girl, and I really meant it
that's how it was, from the very beginning
and that's how it's been for me ever since then
the longer we hold on, the stronger it's gettin
we're livin proof that there are no limits
this is my world, and you're all there is in it
this is my story, you're my happy endin
so long ago, you know we were just kids when
we thought we knew, but now we know we did'nt
after all we've been through, it don't make any difference
I'm tellin you now, with GOD as my witness
my love was true, Baby Girl, and it still is
it's the way that I am, I do give a damn
I make plans and then I carry through with my plans
I ride for the brand, and I do understand
the kind of demands that a true love commands
a wedding band on the hand ain't love grand kind of man
I fell head over heels and stayed right where I landed
I stood by your side and that's still where I'm standin
it was destined to be, I know GOD had a hand in it
"Do you?", asked the Preacher, "I do", was my answer
we were just babies then, what were the chances?
who'd have thought we'd last as long as we've lasted?
for better or worse, through good times and disasters
true love forever happily ever after
we're still here doin what ever we have to
we're still together, and that's all that matters
I asked for your love and got more than I asked for
