Billy

Thirty-six years since the day that we met

It’s a picture in my mind that I’ll never forget

You walked in my life with that spark in your eye

And the days and the seasons just started to fly

I didn't know then just how deep it would go

But look at us now, and the life that we know

Oh Billy, you're loving, you're caring and true

I found my whole world when I gave it to you

Through all of the jokes and the laughter we share

I know when I need you, you're already there

And whatever happens, wherever we'll be

I know that you will always remember me

You always know how to lighten the load

When there's rocks and there's ruts on this old gravel road

You crack a sweet smile and you pull me in tight

Making the heaviest moments feel light

Your gentle, kind heart is the anchor I hold

A steady, warm fire that keeps out the cold

Oh Billy, you're loving, you're caring and true

I found my whole world when I gave it to you

Through all of the jokes and the laughter we share

I know when I need you, you're already there

And whatever happens, wherever we'll be

I know that you will always remember me

Thirty-six years is a beautiful ride

With my favorite person right here by my side

It’s woven so deep in the soul and the bone

A love story written that’s ours all alone

And even if the road takes a sudden new bend

This kind of connection doesn't have an end

Oh Billy, you're loving, you're caring and true

I found my whole world when I gave it to you

Through all of the jokes and the laughter we share

I know when I need you, you're already there

And whatever happens, wherever we'll be

I know that you will always remember me

Yeah, whatever happens, wherever we'll be

Billy, you will always remember me
