Them Two
Darlin will you look at those two.
Kinda reminds me, of me and you.
We’ve certainly put some years on since then.
But Daddy I still remember when.
Lord there’s so much they don’t know.
We can’t tell them, so we just have to let it show.
Oh and look at her face all a glow.
It’s a beautiful thing, to watch a young love grow.
It takes me back to when our love was new.
Two wild hearts, so young and true.
I gave you my heart and that’s where it was kept.
And it all started right there with that first step.
But it turned into an amazing journey over a thousand miles.
It’s true we’ve seen our share of trials.
And times when we’ve stumbled along the way.
But here we are, still here today.
And it’s so bittersweet, to let them go.
Although we have to I know.
I’m proud of them both, they did good.
By making the choices, I prayed they would.
I’m sure it won’t be long before they start down a path of their own.
And I’m thankful they won’t have to go alone,
They’ll be alright, they have each other and they have us,
To point them on the way, show them love, honnor and trust.
To give them guidance when the road gets rough.
And we can only hope, when their roots are firmly in the ground.
That they too will know the happiness we’ve found.
