Carol

We met so beautifully, a perfect kind of start

A quiet, sudden magic that settled in my heart

You always have the patience when the world gets loud

Your wisdom is the compass that guides me through the crowd

Oh, Carol, you're the shelter where I want to be

Everything aligned in October twenty-three

You keep me safe and guarded, you always make me smile

I want to walk beside you for every single mile

That moment means the whole wide world to you and me

Our beautiful October twenty-three

You have a way of joking that chases off the gray

The humor that you carry can save the hardest day

And when the shadows gather, you're fiercely standing by

Protective of this love we built beneath the autumn sky

Oh, Carol, you're the shelter where I want to be

Everything aligned in October twenty-three

You keep me safe and guarded, you always make me smile

I want to walk beside you for every single mile

That moment means the whole wide world to you and me

Our beautiful October twenty-three

We look back on that season, we know just what it means

The turning of the pages, the best of all my dreams

You're everything I needed, my partner and my wife

That single point in time that redefined my life

Oh, Carol, you're the shelter where I want to be

Everything aligned in October twenty-three

You keep me safe and guarded, you always make me smile

I want to walk beside you for every single mile

That chapter means the whole wide world to you and me

I love you, my October twenty-three
