Twelve Years

Twelve years have past Made me wonder, if we're going to last These times has been so hard No wonder, I had to call on the Lord Some days up and some days down Most folks didn't even know I had a frown, The frown was deep down inside If you looked closely, it looked like I had died. But nevertheless, I'm alive and well Because God saved me from the burning Hell, The Hell that tormented my heart and my mind But I still didn't show any signs. Now things appear to be a lot better I don't even have to give him a divorce letter, If I continue to live as God has said Then my marriage won't even be dead. Full of laughter, joy, and no more pain At this rate, my marriage has everything to gain, No more of those unhappy tears And I look forward to twelve more years.
