mike

I still remember nineteen eighty-two

The moment that my story began with you

We made a promise and we held on tight

Walking together into the light

Through every chapter and the changing weather

We learned exactly how to build a life together

Mike, you are brave and you're honest to the core

With every passing season, I just need you more

You've got a wise heart, steady and true

And you will never know just how much I love you

July seventeenth is rolling around

Forty-four years on this solid ground

Side by side through the tears and the grace

There's nowhere I'd rather be than looking at your face

Time keeps moving, but one thing stays the same

The way my spirit lifts when I say your name

Mike, you are brave and you're honest to the core

With every passing season, I just need you more

You've got a wise heart, steady and true

And you will never know just how much I love you

You always speak the truth, you never let me down

The strongest, safest place that I have ever found

I try to show it to you every single day

But words can't hold all the things I want to say

Oh Mike, you are brave and you're honest to the core

After all this time, I just need you more

You've got a wise heart, steady and true

And you will never know just how much I love you

No, you will never know just how much I love you
