I Did It My Way
It was Valentines Day many years ago
Wasn’t a leap year that I do know
Knelt by the bed and I said to him
‘Marry me mate I’m not living in sin’*
Twenty-two years on and we are still wed
Grab every chance it’s too late if you’re dead
Life has a way of knocking us back
Keep positive; stay on the right track
Life is a journey we travel this way
Live life to the full; cherish each day
