Clifford

Every time you came around, I’d forget your name

Like fifty first dates, it was always the same

You’d introduce yourself, so patient and sweet

Like two strangers who just happened to meet

Clifford, I couldn't see the future back then

Never knowing you'd become my forever friend

Ten years of us, six years as one

So many chapters, but baby, we’re not done

We’re not a perfect story, maybe real love never is

It’s choosing each other through the tears and the bliss

When the days get heavy and we're tired and scarred

I'll keep holding on when the journey gets hard

Yeah, it's still you, and baby, it's still us

Through the distance, the struggles, the beautiful years

We've had our share of both laughter and tears

When I forget how to smile, you bring it right back

You make the heavy days lighter, keep us on track

It’s in the simplest things that you do every day

You remind my heart I'm loved in every way

Still figuring love out, but we're doing it right

With you by my side through the day and the night

Ten years of us, six years as one

So many chapters, but baby, we’re not done

We’re not a perfect story, maybe real love never is

It’s choosing each other through the tears and the bliss

When the days get heavy and we're tired and scarred

I'll keep holding on when the journey gets hard

Yeah, it's still you, and baby, it's still us

Real love is choosing you when the world falls apart

It’s the grace that we give to a tired, scarred heart

Through every single chapter, one thing I know

God has been with us wherever we go

From the boy saying his name to the man of my life

My husband, my home, my guiding light

Ten years of us, six years as one

So many chapters, but baby, we’re not done

We’re not a perfect story, maybe real love never is

It’s choosing each other through the tears and the bliss

If I had to live this whole life over again

I'd still choose you, my laughter, my best friend

My husband, my love, Clifford, it's still us
