Sherry

The sun comes up over the open fields

It’s quiet out here, but I know how it feels

To have a full heart, steady and true

After forty-three years of waking up next to you

The morning is still, the coffee is warm

And I'm looking at the woman who weathered the storm

Oh, Sherry, you’re the gentle breeze

Blowing through these old pine trees

So kind and loving, my beautiful wife

Out here in the country, you’re the light of my life

I love you so much, simple and true

Forty-three years, and I’m still falling for you

Through every season, the harvest and rain

You’ve been the shelter that takes away pain

You’ve got a soft touch, a sweet, tender way

That makes me thank God for just one more day

You take care of me with a grace I can't measure

Every moment out here is a moment I treasure

Oh, Sherry, you’re the gentle breeze

Blowing through these old pine trees

So kind and loving, my beautiful wife

Out here in the country, you’re the light of my life

I love you so much, simple and true

Forty-three years, and I’m still falling for you

Time moves slow on a dirt road bend

But the decades flew by with my closest friend

We built this life away from the crowd

It's a quiet kind of love, but I'm saying it loud

Oh, Sherry, you’re the gentle breeze

Blowing through these old pine trees

So kind and loving, my beautiful wife

Out here in the country, you’re the light of my life

I love you so much, simple and true

Forty-three years, and I’m still falling for you
