David

It started with a lucky strike, a bowling alley smile

I didn't know that someday we'd be walking down the aisle

Then came that post-wedding train, riding down the track

Twenty-six years later, and we've never once looked back

Through every passing season, you've been my guiding light

My husband and my best friend, making everything alright.

David, you're my soulmate, my shelter from the cold

Patient and protective, the only hand I hold

Thank you for believing in the woman that I am

And believing in the two of us, my wise and steady man

I love you so sincerely, so deeply, endlessly

My heart is yours forever, from here to eternity.

We've shared so many quiet days walking by the lake

Feeding all the ducks and geese, loving the time we take

From singing at a concert to dancing in the glow

To cheering at a basketball game, or watching a favorite show

It's the simple things we do that mean the most to me

Just sitting right beside you is where I want to be.

David, you're my soulmate, my shelter from the cold

Patient and protective, the only hand I hold

Thank you for believing in the woman that I am

And believing in the two of us, my wise and steady man

I love you so sincerely, so deeply, endlessly

My heart is yours forever, from here to eternity.

You always have the wisdom when I don't know what to do

You encourage every dream I have, you pull me safely through

For over two decades now, you've stood right by my side

The greatest love I've ever known, my partner and my guide.

David, you're my soulmate, my shelter from the cold

Patient and protective, the only hand I hold

Thank you for believing in the woman that I am

And believing in the two of us, my wise and steady man

I love you so sincerely, so deeply, endlessly

My heart is yours, my David, from here to eternity.
