Olajuwon

Eight and a half years in the rearview mirror

Looking back now, the picture couldn't be clearer

We met through my ex, a crazy way to start

But a twist of fate led you right to my heart

I wouldn't change a second of the time we've spent

Or the unexpected places that this journey went

You grew into my anchor and my very best friend

And I'd walk that winding road all over again

Olajuwon, you make me smile every single day

You chase all the shadows and the worries away

No matter where life takes us, I know you'll be there

Holding the key to my heart, my guardian bear

Even on the nights when the tempers run high

And we're both a little mad under the midnight sky

You never let me doubt, you never let me fall

You make me feel secure right through it all

More than just a partner, you are my true love

A blessing that I'm thanking the stars up above

When the world gets heavy and the waters get deep

You're the safe harbor that I get to keep

Olajuwon, you make me smile every single day

You chase all the shadows and the worries away

No matter where life takes us, I know you'll be there

Holding the key to my heart, my guardian bear

No matter where the wind blows, no matter where we go

I just want to make sure that you always know

You're the one I lean on when I need to stand tall

Through the changing of the seasons, I'll be loving you through it all

Olajuwon, you make me smile every single day

You chase all the shadows and the worries away

No matter where life takes us, I know you'll be there

Holding the key to my heart, my guardian bear

Yeah, you hold the key to my heart, my guardian bear
