My Life My Wife My Lady With love, to Barbara By Franklin Price 01/27/2022 You were my life, my wife, my lady For sure, you were a Southern Belle Over fifty years together There's so many tales to tell You lived your life with love and grace Honored everything you did I married you in sixty-nine Said our vows, put on the lid I had found my one true love I wasn't looking any more We danced the dance of wedlock And we twirled around the floor I was so proud you were my wife Proud to have you on my arm You lit up every place you went Your life's fire, four alarm Though trim and short in stature In all you did, you had your say Mostly led, sometimes you followed Set good examples every day You always gave me confidence That I could do most anything My love for you is endless And I'll always wear your ring God has taken you to Heaven You've passed through the pearly gates I'll carry on and make you proud Until my own life here abates Then we'll meet again glory Where we'll spend eternity You're still my life, my wife, my lady And forever, you will be
