Bobby

March of '89, walking out those ER doors

I begged the nurse to pull the info from your chart

You thought she was flirting, looking for a little more

But she was just the angel who led you to my heart

She timed our footsteps right, we walked out side by side

I looked into your green eyes, and my soul was open wide

Oh, Bobby, it was love at first sight

I knew you'd be a part of me forever that day

You're my strong protector, making everything right

And after all these years, you still take my breath away

We've been given a moment, a brand new chance

To finish this beautiful dance

I close my eyes and go back to September twenty-third

The happiest day of my life, the sweetest vows I've heard

You’re hardworking and patient, easygoing and kind

A generous and sensitive man, with a brilliant mind

You're beautiful and funny, so forgiving and so true

A considerate husband, and I'm so in love with you

Seventeen years apart, Lord knows it wasn't easy

The days were long and heavy when you weren't around

But you still own my heart, believe me when I say it

And now that we have met again, look at what we've found

Oh, Bobby, it was love at first sight

I knew you'd be a part of me forever that day

You're my strong protector, making everything right

And after all these years, you still take my breath away

We started thirty-seven years ago with a stolen glance

Now take my hand, and let's finish this beautiful dance
