TRUE LOVE WINS

[Verse 1]
In the still of the evening, under stars that shine,
A man stands quietly, knowing she's divine,
Got a heart full of love that he can't contain,
When he sees her hurting, he feels the pain.
Oh, but through the shadows, she finds her light,
With the beauty of her smile, everything feels right.
Like a warm embrace, wrapped in her grace,
In the story of their love, she holds the place.

[Chorus]
So she leans in to kiss him tonight,
Holding all their memories, everything feels right.
What a life it's been, oh, how love wins,
Through every single moment, true love begins.

[Verse 2]
They could never explain the feelings inside,
A forever love so deep, with no goodbyes.
Even in the night, they find a way to play,
In every challenge faced, they never sway.
Through difficult times, they've made their prayer,
Together they stand, knowing love's always there.
This is simply Jim and Betty's way,
In their hearts, they've crafted a life to stay.

[Chorus]
So he leans in to kiss her tonight,
Holding all their memories, everything feels right.
What a life it's been, oh, how love wins,
Through every single moment, true love begins.

[Bridge]
This crazy, messed up world keeps spinning around,
With absurdity raging, true love's still found.
He knows her every thought without a single word,
One glance from her eyes speaks more than he's heard.
In the depth of their love, it feels like a start,
Every touch and whisper ignites both their hearts.

[Chorus]
So she leans in to kiss him tonight,
Holding all their memories, everything feels right.
What a life it's been, oh, how love wins,
Through every single moment, true love begins.

[Outro]
With each passing season, day in and day out,
They'll face the world together, never a doubt.
In the story of their lives, love’s the sweetest phrase,
True love wins forever, in a heartfelt blaze.
