Set In Stone

He said their love was set in stone For nothing could keep them apart A love like he had never known Had been written inside his heart She said their love was set in stone And nothing could keep her away A love like she had never known Was in her heart to stay The love they had only seemed to grow Now that their kids were grown They knew one day the world would know Their love was set in stone Now married for almost sixty years And not one day was spent alone A lot of laughter and very few tears For their love was set in stone They buried the couple the other day On their marker these words were shown A Love like this rarely comes this way For their love were set in stone

Oh - how lovely. There are not many people today who stay married for that long. I've been married 44 years. I wouldn't change my husband for anyone else I'm glad to say.
